    the "dancing with myself" rip is great, like how "razorblade" shares a melody with "mandy" by barry manilow

    Damn I really like Bad Decisions. Haven’t liked anything from them as much as this in a while.

    run away with me Platinum

    Eternal Summer also credits the Psychedelic Furs so probably another sample

    Yeah, both tracks are good but I love Bad Decisions. I'm also done listening to new tracks before the full album comes out.

    After these two songs my hopes are through the roof. Like these are legitimate great fresh tunes. They sound invigorated. Some of the best songs of the year. Lol 2020, crazy.

    ha same, I pre order the indie variant of the record. I didn't expect to do that for the strokes in 2020.

    I'm not brave Prestigious

    My exact thoughts. I was hoping after it’d been so long since their last full-length, that if/when they decided to finally release a new one it would be from a place of genuine inspiration. So far that seems to be the case.

    I thought I had it preordered but apparently ordered the standard and now the indie is sold out.

    Regular

    A few years back, razorblade came on in the car when I was driving with my mom. She immediately recognized the melody and said “that sounds like Barry!” Needless to say she didn’t like the rest of the sing lol.

    Big couple of months for Modern English. I hear “I Melt With You” in Purple Mountains “All My Happiness is Gone” as well.

    Invigorated is a really good word for these new tracks, especially "Bad Decisions." Cannot get this song out of my head.

    Both tracks are top notch Strokes and I’m here for every minute of it.

    #1 is correct

    Maybe so, maybe not.

    Top 10 is pretty solid. I would personally flip 1 and 2 though.
