New Strokes Album ... What's your verdict?

Vinny [Edit] [Delete] 16:44, 21 October '03
When I first got Room on Fire I was mighty excited but upon listening I became more and more disappointed. Never before have I heard so many supposedly seprate songs end then the next begin but sound like the same song! Shit I hope you understand that.

I'm surprised no-one else has touched on this. While the first album was undoubtedly a masterpiece the second in definitely substandard. You can't blame them really though. They were hurtled to fame too quickly and with only 20 songs under their belts now it doesn't look like the pressure gonna let off (I say twenty because the majority of the Bs so far have been live or revised tracks. Tripe!)
