These guys fucking suck

Anyone agree? Disagree?




New edit:


Actually, now that I've carried it out, I don't think this experiment is a good idea.
Could a mod please close this for ole me?
 
Yeah the whole thing was going to be a study on how stupid it is to make a hate thread, but I got lazy and just don't want to bother now.

He changes his mind, says I went too far. We all disagree, I think we should disagree, yeah.

Okay, I'm out.

Personally, I like to put on some Billy Squire before any Strokes come on.

The STROKE!
 
Never been a fan, don't hate them though. I remember when they blew up when I was in college. Never really caught my attention, but they do their own thing, I respect, unlike you haters :mad:
 
I cant believe it, I would have taken Bumberry as a LOVER of strokes!!!!!!!

:happy:

you're deadright immy, its stupid but sometimes you need a valve letting off steam. always better than do the columbine.
btw i love the music of THE STROKES:up:...one of the better bands these days
 
I have both of their albums, and I love them. I hear the next one is supposed to be even better (though doesn't everybody say that? :wink: ).
 
The Strokes to me are the equivalent of N'Sync. Both are prepackaged, glossy, fabricated, PRODUCT marketed to certain (albeit different) demographics.

A bunch of rich kids with no connection to each other thrown together by crafty A&R men for the almighty $. Sorry Strokes, I'll put on a Ramones record when I want to hear the genuine article. And after much debate, the Strokes have announced they are renaming their stillborn second record, to: That *Was* It!

you sir, know nothing. stop trying to be clever.

julian met nikolai when they were six at school and a few years later they met fab and nick at high school. they then hooked up with albert a year later. hardly manufactured is it? yes the ramones are clearly an influence but i think it's fair to say that they were an influence on SO many bands since their time at the top.

the stroke's are a great rock n roll band with catchy tunes. esp the first album :wink:
 
You beat me to it, 1step. They did all know each other. Anyways, most all bands get "set up" together in some way. We could say that U2 was a "product" too because Larry put them together, but it really doesnt hold up or matter.

I think Hawkfire was probably trying to refer to the fact that their families had connections in the music business. Even so, I personally dont see what's wrong with that. I read a study that up to about 70% of people in the United States get jobs (any job in any industry) based off of having contacts/knowing somone who either vouched for them or put in a good word for them. How someone gets their contract doesnt concern me regardless, it's what kind of music they make. I personally have enjoyed their music so far, fun stuff.
