Sinister: The Strokes - no thanks!

[zorba at xxx.uk]

yep lawrence, i'll back you up!  the strokes ARE kinda shit.  in my 
shop we play a variety of music (i'm supposed to play world music 
only really, but after listening to some of those albums for over a 
year you do get a bit fed up with them).  the assistant manager is 
a big b&s fan too, which is good so we both enjoy listening to 
them.  but he's also into the manics, so plays them too, which is 
not so good.  but anyway onto the strokes . . . . i listened to 
their album twice over the other week and it was boring and 
droney.  television they aint.  velvet underground - uh-uh *shakes 
head violently.  about as much fun as listening to gay dad - 
probably.  or maybe these animal men.  another band NME decided to 
make big & then break.

no more strokes in my shop.  now where did i put my Parliament 
album . . . ?
