I like them, but I think the strokes have written better songs and are far more known world wide.


They might be more known worldwide, but they haven't written better songs. At least not in my opinion.

I don't think The Strokes have written anything that even comes close to "Maps", "Hysteric", "Heads Will Roll", or "Y Control", to list a few.

Don't get me wrong, I like The Strokes. I think they're a good rock band, but none of their tracks have blow my figurative doors off like the YYYs have.

Last Night is a great song. And Is This It? is a very good album. But that's pretty much it for me with the Strokes. They are an imminently skippable band on my iPod. They are the Van Halen of the aughts. You're not sure when you purchased their music or why, but for some odd reason, everyone owns at least two of their albums.
