The Stroke

In 2001 there are two things that are surprising from the city of New York. First, of course, the collapse of the WTC event but I'm not going to talking about it here. But one thing more, namely the band whose name is The Strokes. Who the hell The Strokes?New York is famous for its diverse communities, as well as five members of The Strokes this. The lead singer, Julian Casablancas is actually not an American original.Bokapnya, John Casablancas (Yap! modeling agency owner that!) Comes from Spain, while Julian's mother was Miss Denmark all these years .. You could say Julian is frontmannya The Strokes, besides him the oldest (23 August 1978), Julian is a songwriter for band. Fabrizio Moretti (2/6/80) is the drummer of The Strokes, although for a while Fab was replaced by Matteo Romano because of a broken hand Fab.Nikolai Fraiture (13/11/79), the bass player, known as the Quite Stroke. Although rarely open your mouth, which bleed France Nikolai expertise not doubt. The Strokes have two guitarists that if I say have the same ability. Albert Hammond Jr., was born in April 1980, bokapnya alias Albert Hammond Sr. was a singer who in 1972 had a hit called It Never Rains In Southern California. Lastly, the youngest member Nick Valensi (16/01/81) French descent. Perhaps the match is called Baby Stroke?

The story of The Strokes started since Nick and Fab Julian met while he was still 15 years in New York's Drake School. When it is Nick's younger brother Julian's class two years younger. Julian immediately amazed at Nick who already play the guitar since age six. While Albert met Julian when they were both at a boarding school in Switzerland, as well as Nikolai who met Julian at a grammar school. Do not feel like studying at elite schools, Julian decided to quit, followed by Nick. They decided to get serious in music channels

since 2000

they also began to frequently perform at various places, like The Acme, Baby Jupiter and Arlene Grocery. But their appearance at the Mercury Lounge was the one who brings good luck. Ryan Gentles, the manager of the Mercury Lounge, send them a demo tape to Geoff Travis, the record label Rough Trade. Rough Trade cs Julian was flown to London and agreed to release their single, The ModernNew Musical Express. American record companies also became interested in The Strokes, but ultimately chose RCA Julian cs, k Age. The single received a good reception from English society, the Strokes were finally finished the front cover of tabloid arena is just a label that does not mind when Julian cs says if they do not want to make a video clip (except when taken from their live performances.)

The album Is This It was released in 2001 and the world also are in the grip of The Strokes! At least Europe and America. Very sensual album that covers this (circulating in Indonesia is an album with different cover) received an award from Q 5/5yaitu full value, while the NME readers chose as the best album of 2001. The Strokes music reminds us of the 70s punk like The Clash RamonesThe, but given a modern touch and of course the strong expertise of its members also gave its own value on this album. For example, the opening song, Is This It, we are immediately greeted with a proper bass Nikolai can or thumbs up, Nick's guitar solo at The Modern Age, Albert solo guitar and drums at the Last Nite Fab in New York City Cops. Do not forget, the sound of Julian which may sound long but it brings its own atmosphere in each song. From the lazy style of Is This It, cheerful at Someday arrived in Trying Your Luck that sounds really weld. Aja Honestly, I've never bored ngedengerin this album, perhaps one of the best albums I've ever heard.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

and then ..

Appearance of its members also reinforced the music of The Strokes. Sometimes - sometimes they like to use grooming neat suit and tie, but underneath that super celan faded jeans and Converse shoes. When Julian also gig ever use the full jacket-style singer in the 40s.

Although keliatannya origin, either in appearance or the words (Albert never said if they were gay?!), Julian cs successfully shows that the wealth they have is not the most important thing to pursue success in the music world. The Strokes have a clear attitude in music, although they say their music is old-fashioned, they are persistent and proved equal to their music, very creative right? Of course, solidarity is also important band, I can not imagine if one member of The Strokes is replaced. Well like he says "Do you know about the importance of The Hug? The band That stays together together.Similarly hugs, hugs That the band together fights together.
