The whole issue about The Strokes is pretty interesting. I know that every song sounds the same and the slurring of Julian Casablancas is pretty contemtible, but let's be honest: they are pretty sweet. The hairstyles are adorable, and they are really just a bunch of rich white kids who want to express their sorrow. They might not be eloquent, seemingly able to only deal with the emotions: "I'm happy!" or "I'm sad!", but they are quite nice in their own way. Don't pidgeonhole any band as being just "bad", because there is usually more to it than that.
