It's akin to comparing Pearl Jam and Nirvana....same city, same period, same 'scene'.

NYC in the early 00's turned out many bands like The Strokes, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol, The National, Fiery Furnaces, TV on the Radio, Animal Collective....sorry you weren't aware.



I'm aware of all those bands and the early 2000s NYC "scene" doesn't change the fact that The Strokes and Interpol have almost nothing in common musically.

Well there‘a an entire chapter in the Meet Me in the Bathroom book that came out a few years ago about how, in that initial moment at least, Indie music people were either Strokes fans or Interpol fans. There was even a rivalry of sorts between the bands. So you may be off here
