The Strokes

The Strokes, or if your really obsessed with them

Julian Casablancas
Nick Valensi
Albert Hammond, Jr.
Nikolai Fraiture
Fabrizio Moretti

The Strokes First formed when Casablancas and Hammond shared an apartment in New York together. The First show was at the Luna Lounge, then went on to play the Mercury Lounge whose booker left to become the bands manager. +

The first song I heard by them was their most popular: Reptilia, and at first I didn’t like too much. I think I didn’t like it because I wasn’t so obsessed with music at the time, but now that I am I consider myself a major fan. I was 11 or so and as I walked into my brothers room; I remember hearing a distorted guitar and a fast paced tempo, which probably gave me a headache at the time, but now I cant get enough of.

Pomplamoose

Here is a REAL BAND that has TALENT, unlike an auto-tuned rapper

Pomplamoose consist of Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn

But when on tour they bring Carlos Cabrera And Ryan Lerman

I first heard this band in December of 2010, they made a car commercial. I noticed their catchy Christmas jingles, then I started watching the commercials, then I went to their you tube...and WOW

ever since then I have been listening non stop. 

they also do something called "videosongs". videosongs are not your typical musical video. what you see them play is what your hear and if you see it in the video you will hear it at some point. 

I love them because of their sound, you have to hear them live. They just have that IT factor. Listen to them and you’ll know what I mean.

They are one of my favorite bands of all time, and if I couldn’t pick all of their songs as favorite I narrowed it down to this three.

I highly recommend to watch them live (video above)

Pomplamoose live is one of the greatest things i have ever heard
