Was Spotifying it the other day and the first song I listened to by these guys I fell in love with.

Get the first album and the singles off the latter two and you're covered.

I really did not like FIOE, Room On Fire is more than singles though I'd say

Like Reptilia isn't all that great but Meet Me in the Bathroom is epic (and creepily about Courtney Love??)

Love Strokes, though. Favourite band.

Similar tunes? Do you mean similar to Strokes material? Because if you think his solo record is similar, from track to track, then i couldn't disagree more.

Is their a better Strokes track than Take it Or Leave It, I'm finding it harder and harder to find one.

The new album is called "Angles" and includes songwriting from all members of the band, as opposed to predominantly Julian as it was in their first two releases.

New York City Cops is a pretty good fun song... but didn't they pull it from the album after 9/11?? Did Is This It ever get re - released with that track?
