| I am underwhelmed by this matchup. If it's supposed to represent the NYC indie rock scene, can I vote TV on the Radio? Meh. Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Just to prevent a band as thoroughly mediocre as the Strokes winning unanimity. Reply Back to Top |

| Yeah Yeah Yeahs Very underwhelming matchup here. Fever To Tell and Show Your Bones are two really good albums. After that...meh. Reply Back to Top |
| YYY, and it's not even close for me...though I do like the first Strokes album. Reply Back to Top |

quote: No, but if you started a separate thread on the NYC indie rock scene of the late 90s and early aughts, I think that would be awesome, and I would join in the discussion. Reply Back to Top |
quote: Yeah, I wasn't expecting The Strokes to run away with this. YYYs are the far superior band imho. But what the hell do I know? This post was edited on 1/2 at 1:27 am Reply Back to Top |
quote: I saw them in DC in 2004 at a venue that I think no longer exists. They sucked. They were just going through the motions; they couldn't get off the stage fast enough. Not even a single encore. I've never seen the YYYs, but I really really want to. As soon as I have anything even loosely resembling a feasible opportunity to see them, I'm there. Reply Back to Top |
quote: Why? The strokes are a far more popular band Go ask a random person off the street if they know who the yeah yeah yeahs are and I would bet 9/10 wouldn't have a clue. I like them, but I think the strokes have written better songs and are far more known world wide. Reply Back to Top |
