The strokes are great if you don't liked being weighed down with more than one chord in a song....

Good for you Derek.

The Strokes are punk-ass, assholes. The came into our studio last year for a shoot for The Face drunk, stupid and uncooperative.

Some of their music is ok - some not. I can't help but be biased by their personalities though.

Yep I can totally see that happening. I wasn't impressed with them in the least. Muse on the other hand, well, they were just cool.
