Rob Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Anyone else heard their new single 'Juicebox'?It's a total departure from anything they've done before. Think I need to give it a few more listens before I get into it.You can hear it at http://www.thestrokes.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingsinatra Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 your right it is a tad strange, not sure if i like it yet at all though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen B Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 It sounds a bit like 80s Matchbox B-Line Disaster. And it's pish too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 not what i was expecting at all, not sayin its bad tho just totally different from their usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lepeep Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 sounds like batman...i have to say, I think it's better than the other strokes stuff I've heard...nice driving bassline... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lizard King Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 i quite like it. At least they are trying to do something different from their last two albums. I liked the first album and the singles were good from the 2nd. I will most probally be a floor filler. The chorus is quite catchy after a few listens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Not bad, definately a departure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowan Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 It's one of those song you have to listne to a few times before you can get into it. But the thing you need to ask yourself is.. "If this wasnt a Strokes song would i even have given it a second chance?"... My answer would be noLets just wait and see what the rest of the album sound like, i know Room On Fire is up there in my top 10 anyhoo..STROKES ALBUM DETAILS:TITLE: 'First Impressions Of Earth'You Only Live Once' 'Juicebox' 'Heart In A Cage''Razor Blade' 'On The Other Side' 'Eletricityscape' 'Killing Lies' 'Fear Of Sleep' '15 Minutes' 'Vision Of Division' 'Red Light''Evening Sun' 'The Ize Of The World' 'Ask Me Anything'Released 9th January Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pacino Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I think it's pretty damn good. The bass line is ace.Glad to see The Strokes moving into new terriotiary. All great bands change over the years........ don't they??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number27 Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I love it. Some of Julian's vocals remind me of Jim Morrison, LA Woman days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessHolly Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I love it!! Who wouldn't like a song that sounds like batman? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluesxman Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 That's great. Music remind me a bit of Dead Kennedys at times. Looking forward to this album, The Strokes are a really good band even though Julian comes across as a bit of a nobber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Atom Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 It's a pretty cool track, I'm impressed.Wasn't what you'd call a fan of the Strokes, saw them at Leeds a few years back and was bored to tears but this seems like a pretty different sound altogether.Even got a sweet little bit of riffage in the middle too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
