After listening to their well loved Debut "Is This It" I finally have returned to "The Strokes" Funnily enough I have now headed to their most latest work, with their 2020 release "The New Abnormal" With this 6th studio album I was hella keen to hear how the band had evolved. I had read so many comments from the subs saying this album was a winner and well if you can't tell by the title they were all right about that!

Julian honestly has one of the coolest voices ever. I’m so happy you reacted to this!!!! Now… The Voidz next!

@davidblommaart1464 5 месяцев назад

Yes, Jack should listen to Tyranny!!!!!!

@theslowvision 4 месяца назад

that would be rad

@JiorgosST 5 месяцев назад

I feel like the overlapping guitars in songs from "The Strokes" never get enough attention. They flow so seemlessly into each other while still playing two entirely different tunes. It's wild

@felipecampos3045 5 месяцев назад

Ode to the mets is one of the best songs i've ever heard

@cavemanjack 3 месяца назад

low-key one of the best songs I have ever heard too

@notsomeoneyouknew 4 месяца назад

This album won grammy! And they deserves

@alecbest5236 5 месяцев назад

As an unapologetically obnoxious Strokes fan for the past 22 years, this video makes me smile so hard. Love this dude.

@alecbest5236 5 месяцев назад

Also, Room on Fire should no doubt be your next Strokes listen. It’s arguably just as good if not better than Is this it, and my personal favorite.

@BalloonSeasonArchive 5 месяцев назад

handily one of the best albums this decade so far

@dobity8370 5 месяцев назад

crazy lockdown vibes off this one for me!💛

@forhuey 4 месяца назад

loool yes

@hendrimike08 5 месяцев назад

The album cover is a work by Jean-Michel Basquiat titled "Bird on Money".

@shainetm1691 5 месяцев назад

Best Strokes record and Top 5 Indie-Rock Albums for me. Such a masterpiece. I still listen to it on a regular basis, especially during summer.

@ritik2044 5 месяцев назад

What are the other 4 I’m curious

@gdsupreme5040 5 месяцев назад

I completely agree this is easily one of my top 5 favorite albums of all time and has such a nice warm summer feel to it.

@daniman0114 5 месяцев назад

The first time I listened to ode to the Mets might honestly be one of my favorite music experiences ever, felt full body chills at the end too. Something that honestly rarely if ever happens.

@cavemanjack 3 месяца назад

one of the best songs I have heard all year

@BalloonSeasonArchive 5 месяцев назад

Bad Decisions is very similar to Dancing With Myself which is the Flushed Away opening credits

@matthewlopez00 5 месяцев назад

fun fact: billy idol actually has writing credits on bad decisions just because of how similar the chorus is!

@Ryudek10 5 месяцев назад

Is This It and The New Abnormal are, in my opinion, the best two albums they've released, they are almost flawless. Two incredible records. Room on Fire is close, and FIOE and Angles have their high points. From your reaction, I'd tell you to check out Comedown Machine, it's the closest they've got to The New Abnormal imo

@andylangford2658 Месяц назад

Definitely agree on this. I think Jack would definitely digg comedown machine with the slow songs spread over that album. Happens to be my favourite strokes album too.

@chosone2 5 месяцев назад

Honestly one of my favorite albums. Listen front-to-back or in a shuffle, all the songs stand on their own. The production and mixing, the duelling guitar riff and solos... and my god, Julian's vocal performances are sublime

@GhostlyEcheveria 5 месяцев назад

Julian's falsetto is insane on this album. When you think back to old Strokes albums, that falsetto is unimaginable. Julian's singing style has evolved so much. When he first started experimenting with it, I didn't know what to think because it was so different, but now I absolutely love it. I think every single Strokes album is worth listening to. Also, I wonder what you would think of Albert Hammond Jr.'s (the lead guitarist) solo stuff. You can really get a feel for exactly what he brings to the signature sound of The Strokes. Mutual Beatings is a great song to start with. Also, nice ear with the samping/references. They reference many bands from Joy Division, to Billy Idol. The lyric "making bad decisions" is a spin off of "dancing with myself" by Billy Idol. The Stroke have been one of my favorite bands since my very first listen. The impact they had on mainstream music at the time of their debut is undeniable. I'm always excited to see someone who is as in love with their music as I am. Please react to more Strokes albums. Every album is worth listening to.

@chrisww2308 5 месяцев назад

Iv been a massive strokes fan from the start and I will admit I kinda had accepted they were passed it.. This album is absolutely blew me away and I’m so happy for the guys.. this is a masterpiece and arguably their best… a few years later this album is even better.

@jeffharper4509 4 месяца назад

Same. I enjoy most of their later stuff, but I accepted their best work was behind them years ago. Somehow, I didn’t even hear that they had made a new album until 2023! I couldn’t believe how good it was, totally blew me away. ROF is my favorite album, but this is easily tied 2nd for me with Is This It. That first listen was so emotional for some reason, it felt like being reunited with your best friend after not seeing them for years.

@FrankGBSDC 5 месяцев назад

The song Bad Decisions lifts from “Dancing with Myself” from Billy Idol.

@slow_dancer45 3 месяца назад

I saw the strokes live at "ain't no picnic" festival in LA and they played bad decisions and let me tell you, it was just as good as you described it. Everyone was singing and having a great time! Great review man, this is my favorite album of all time

@Fullmoonat9am 3 месяца назад

I was there too! Excellent set, such an amazing night

@franciscogarrido9339 5 месяцев назад

My life was not the same after listening to this album for the first time (specially Ode to the mets). It got out almost 4 years ago and there hasn't been a day that i dont listen to at least one of these songs. They are just so much better than anything you hear. And it takes so many elements from like Daft Punk, Tame Impala while keeping the the strokes elements present. I still haven't found a better album than this one. I also love the debut from Arctic Monkeys because of its rawness and how young they were, but the New Abnormal is just on onother level and watching people listening to it for the first time remindes me of how good it really is. Can't wait for their next album

@forhuey 4 месяца назад

@cavemanjack 3 месяца назад

@cody95 5 месяцев назад

The album cover is an original piece from an American artist named Jean-Michel Basquiat. He was very popular in the Brooklyn art scene in the 80’s and was once seen as Andy Warhol’s protege. He died of a heroin overdose in 1988. Basquiat’s estate approved the band’s use of the piece. I’m sure them being from NYC was a big factor in it getting approved, as the Strokes also made a huge impression on the same city when they quickly rose in popularity in the early 2000s

@Swenj1 4 месяца назад

34:36 so that writing says "para morir" It means "to die" in spanish, its used to express when something is so good you would do anything to obtain it, its such a good album its worth dying for it

@ren.batista 2 месяца назад

Eternal Summer is a ride! Easily one of my favorites from this album. Why Are Sundays So Depressing is my favorite tho

@peachesannndgravy 4 месяца назад

This band is so special && paramount to my teenage high school experience. I honestly heard this album until last year && the sound && lyrics illustrate how far they’ve all come. A talented bunch. You never disappoint, Jack. I wish to see you react to Björk :)

In Bad Decisions you talk about that "Festival-esque" vibe of the album and u are so right.. I went to their Lollapalooza Chile 2022 show and they just opened with Bad Decisions. It was such an amazing vibe.. crowd going crazy, singing, making so much noise, jumping.. I recommend you to check that show on youtube, I guarantee you will get goosebumps! Anyways, i love your reactions.. u really appreciate and feels the good music and I hope you can react to their entire discography, there are so many gems and legendary songs.

This album finally felt like The Strokes. Is This It was such a success that they focused so much on recreating that, meanwhile their identities changed and they matured as musicians, yet were hesitant to change their approach to the point where it drove a rift between the group. It was so nice to see them come back together to create what they wanted as a group and inject a little bit of them all into each track. Everyday since this album’s release I’m hoping and praying for another record from them that’s created in the same light.

@rickyliddell1432 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for this reaction Jack. I have been a huge fan of this album since it came out, but this reaction made me fall in love all over again. Artwork is titled "Bird on Money", it's a painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat. Thanks for the video man.

@Infernomen 5 месяцев назад

Nobody’s mentioning it from what I can see. The tune you recognized in Bad Decisions was in Flushed Away. Dancing With Myself by Billy Idol is directly referenced in the chorus. Billy Idol has credits in the song

@andylangford2658 Месяц назад

Lol...your face when you looked into the camera, when the outro bit of eternal summer popped 😂

@calebkendrick1590 4 месяца назад

Btw, on Bad Decisions the riff you were thinking of from Flushed Away is "Dancing with Myself" by Billy Idol. The riff is taken directly from that song and they credited him for it

@Bombereaux 3 дня назад

What a pure dopamine hit for me to see you enjoy this album as much as I did lol. It's perfect.

@MrBfg586 5 месяцев назад

They had to give writing credit to Billy Idol for Bad Decisions because the chorus sounded like Dancing with Myself. I personally think it sounds like Modern English’s Melt with You.

@granthuling3235 5 месяцев назад

I’m not a fan of that song or other ones like Brooklyn Bridge that sound like nothing BUT a pastiche of other songs.

@chosone2 5 месяцев назад

@@granthuling3235 Surely the whole point of The Strokes is taking nostalgic sounds and modernising them? Both Angles and Comedown Machine also have a lot of new wave influence. Just listen to The Voidz if you're wanting something more contemporary and experimental

Hello, I went through your channel and I see that you react to different albums, I would like to recommend you and react if you can to the following album: Untrue by Burial, it is an album from the undergrown dubstep and garage scene, it is quite deep and introspective and something dark, it's my favorite album, I recommend listening to it at night.

@punish5r 5 месяцев назад

yup, it was a grammy winning album for a reason

@EcuaMan 4 месяца назад

Can you give YES a try? Listen to And You And I from the Close To The Edge album, studio version is preferred.

This is a bit off topic but if you could listen to OK Human by Weezer I would really appreciate it. I feel like it got kind of swept under the rug in terms of reactions and it’s one of their best and is really unique compared to some of their other ones.
