^^ Can hear the Strokes in 50/50. I like it.
MY opinions based on what I have listened to so far:
I really dislike "All The Time"-- I can't really name the reason I have such a strong dislike for it, I just do. Maybe because it is the one of the least 80's-sounding on an album where they are doing something different. It's like a fake Strokes song. Maybe I should listen harder, or try again.
"Welcome to Japan" is growing on me. "Tap Out" is as well. I really enjoy Albert Hammond Jr's playing. I loved his solo stuff and this song reminds me of that.
"Chances" I find my self wanting to like this song, but I do not. Something about the voice just doesn't do it for me.
I'm trying to keep an open mind. This is not Is this It, or Room on Fire two of my favorite albums.Comedown Machine will never be what those are to me. However, I can get behind this new album, a little. Being a Strokes "purists", that's as far as I can go.
