Is This It
“Hype. It's a bitch. Ascending mediocre bands to heights of unwarranted popularity, and smacking the truly great down to "critics' pet" status, hype has become a plague on any band hoping to achieve unbridled adoration among music elitists. When the media hounds smell success and respond with their annual cry of "saviors of rock and roll," disappointment is inevitable. So it goes with the Strokes, ”

Is This It
“**💭 Thoughts:** Legendary indie rock band The Strokes’ highly acclaimed 2001 debut *Is This It* is one of the most highly acclaimed albums of all time, featuring a raw and nostalgic garage-rock sound. While this type of music isn’t really my thing, when it’s paired with the right scenery—like driving during a sunset—it becomes a 10 easily. **🎶 Tracklist Review** 1.) Is This It 🔵 2.) The Modern Age 🟢 3.) Soma 🟢 4.) Barely Legal 🟢 5.) Someday 🔵🥇 6.) Alone, Together 🔵🥈 7.) Last Nite 🔵🥉 8.) Hard To Explain 🔵 9.) New York City Cops 🟡 10.) Trying Your Luck 🔵 11.) Take It Or Leave It 🔵 ──────────────────── **🤔 Track Rating Scale** 🔵 Loved — Thoroughly enjoyed it and will revisit often. 🟢 Liked — Enjoyed it, but it’s not one I’d revisit often. 🟡 Mixed — Enjoyed it somewhat, but some aspects held it back for me; most likely won’t revisit. 🟠 Disliked — Didn’t enjoy it very much; won’t be revisiting. 🔴 Hated — Didn’t enjoy any part of it; no desire to revisit ever again. ⚪️ Interlude, etc. — Not rated as an actual song. ──────────────────── **🏅 Ranking Scale** 10 — Perfect 9 — Exceptional 8 — Great 7 — Good 6 — Decent 5 — Average 4 — Below Average 3 — Poor 2 — Bad 1 — Awful 0 — Unlistenable”

“Un bell’album tutto sommato, e non so come mai così tante persone lo detestino. Volevo dargli 8 ma perde punti per Psycho Shit e Tyrants Of The Mellow Moon. Peccato per l’autotune usato a sproposito per “sperimentare”, rende tutto un po’ troppo carico e se non ci fosse stato l’album avrebbe potuto essere ancora meglio. Comunque sono piacevolmente sorpresa e mi fa venir voglia di ballare, quindi top”

“- feier diese und zack zack zack openings haha wie nennt man das - der weltschmerz is real - iwie kenn ich die songs alle so ein ganz ganz bisschen, waren die mal aufm hurricane oder so lel - okay zu barely legal würd ich auch das tanzbein schwingen xd - die instrumentals erinnern mich phasenweise echt an adam green - das mini solo auf alone together bockt, simpel aber groovy - goated debut ngl - der rhythm auf hard to explain klingt echt mega wie carolina idk - s/o an den deep dive über zählzeiten und deren auswirkungen auf das tanzen xd”
