The Strokes Essentials

It only takes the irresistible bounce of “Last Nite” to see why The Strokes burst out of New York the way they did at the turn of the millennium. The combination of feral garage rock snarl and treble-heavy, New Wave guitar licks sparked their rise to the apex of cool with a seductive dynamic: singer Julian Casablancas swinging unrestrained between Lou Reed-esque lethargy and gritty wails as the others pump catchy lifeblood into the band's wild, rock ‘n' roll heart. There isn't one tune you can't dance to.
