By Julian Casablancas. I always have been a big fan of The Strokes, but this album goes beyond garage rock and post-punk and is just such a masterpiece. I can't believe it didn't get more attention.

Its really good, has a great overall sound to it.

The Strokes need to release something new soon, its time.

not if it's anything like Angles


Because of that record I had no idea they had released one since. I just looked it up and saw they had, so I need to check that one out too

I actually liked Angles.

I thought Come Down Machine was terrible.

This album is in my top 10 for sure. It's incredible. I was actually pissed when Julian went back with the strokes because he wouldn't be making more music like Phrazes.

Come Down Machine was more of a continuation of Julian's solo work. It sounded very 80s new waveish to me. I do like CDM better than Angles though.

You guys are not selling me on CDM. At least I'll always have Is This It. That record is

Nothing will ever beat that album for them. Easily one of the best records ever. CDM is good too, just different.
