Query: Forget the hype, and the critics. But just listen

It has been more than 3 years since I last bought any American band cd. I lost interest in today American mainstream bands because of the current music scence. But things are getting better since I discovered THE STROKES. It is such a thrill to listen them. I love their melody, classic rock sound and their driven rythmic guitars and drum beats. The singer may not have the best voice, but his voice is fitting for the feel of the music. Forget what people write about The Stroke as being a "hype" band. Some pretentious snob would make an unorginal comment that The strokes got a record deal because of their social backgrounds. Those people got those comments from some SPIN magazine anyway. Those people dont have anything new to say about The strokes. Just buy this album and enjoy something that is old but is new.
