LOVE - Phrazes of the Young


Phrazes of the Young in the new album from The Strokes lead singer Julian Casablancas. I have always been a passive fan of The Strokes, great party music, gets people in the mood to have a good time. However, I think Casablancas has out done himself in this solo effort. After hearing comparisons being made to Thom Yorke's Eraser, I went in with expectations high, and was blown away. I hope the albums met with huge success, because it is much deserved. Heres the first single "11 Dimension" and two other favourites so far.

HATE - Getting Stains On White Shirts 



Just seems inevitable, and its the worst.

  1. Can't say that I love Phrazes for the Young as much as you seem to. Solid effort by Casablancas though, I'm a big fan of his regardless.

    Don't get me wrong - I don't hate the album, 11th Dimension is awesome, as is 4 Chords of the Apocalypse. And based on what I've seen in my YouTube travels, these song translate surprisingly well into live performances.

    However,

    The Eraser > Phrazes.
