I feel this was a very poor follow up to ''is this it''. and it should have been titled ''is that it''.

I bought their first release and loved it and was really looking forward to this release. This is really a repeat of the first cd and there is no reason to go and buy this. You now have to question their talent here and their ability to improve as musicians.At 33 minutes forget it!

This sounds like a great album. Certainly a relief from the "rap" influenced music nowadays. The music is raw and straight rock. Maybe..just maybe bands like the strokes will give rock n roll another chance to thrive...

But it only offers a limited number of listens at one sitting because the style of all the songs are the same. i guess thats how all albums are. but other than that, this is their best album. its reallygood, and neone who is looking for a good new source for oldern style of music from the late 70s and 80s, this is the one to get. really good music

... but I'll start with this CD.Damn, the year went very well, I bought some great music. Then I made the mistake of buying this utter piece of hyped sh... Thankfully, it's only 33 minutes long. I've played the album twice and will never ever do so again, promise. Don't tell me anyone that it would grow on me - I'd rather have some exotic fungus grow on me.The songs (for lack of a better word) all sound the same, there's a lot of tuneless riffing, always the same rhythms, and the "singer" sounds like he was stuffed into an oil drum and recorded with a mike that's "kaputt". These guys have as much musical talent as my pet guppy. It's incredible what kind of rubbish gets hyped these days, and there's always idiots (like myself) who fall for it. Another lesson learnt.

Of course the guy still talks like an anorexic (...) you can verily understand at least he is accompanied by good backgroundmusic this guy however has a very crappy voice.Not my styleLyrics 3/10 Production 8/10 Music 9/10 Style 4/10 Voice 0/10Overall 24/50 wich is 48% a halfed (...) album try harder 2.5 star
