well gorbie, I feel like it's a more than welcome argument on account of the fact that the White Stripes truly, truly rock, and the Strokes just rock. sort of.
:D

Yes, the Strokes got thrown into the limelight in part because they had money backing them.
But that money doesn't change their slack talent of writing incredibly catchy lazy rock.
No, they don't play searing guitar solos. In fact, they're almost comically lazy and goofy sounding - but its endearing.
and i would recommend seeing The White Stripes live before talking about them not having enough 'sound'.
I saw them in Seattle (before they blew up and played some terrible larger venue with bad sound)
I had no idea two people could make so much noise.
His guitar was SEARING.
He jumped in and out of songs like nothing - and wailed on his solos.My favs are Jack the Ripper and Jolene
I hope they play a different venue next time around.

no way... I pick 2. .. As a Matter of fact, I think I am going to go put on both cds right now :P

Built to Spill have perhaps the best lyric ever on the state of modern-day relationships:
Love is just a joyride/
drink a lot of beer and climb inside/
lay your foot down on the gas/
leave it there until you crash/gonna crank them when I get home. :)

Both Suck.
They are in every other magazine. I dont know who Im tired of seeing more: Austin Kutcher, Ben Lopez, the Strokes, or White Stripes.

lame argument six8.
Just because the White Stripes are in magazines or The Strokes, doesn't mean they suck.
President Bush is in magazines every day and we don't all hate him.

I just got back from Best Buy. I heard about 4 songs on the way back and I thought it was great. I broke down and bought RobertRandolfandtheFamilyBand and an OtisRedding cd too and RunRonnieRun and BluesBrothers... I forgot abou Trom though. I have a shopping problem, I can never buy one 12 dollar cd I always have to walk outta the store with at least 60 bucks worth of shit... God.!
Anyway, I honestly haven't heard much of the white stripes but what I have heard I didn't dig all that much.
Any everyone that keeps babbling about the white stripes and the blues I bet only 1/4th own at least 1 thing blues related...
Unique does not necessarly mean good...
Sorry for the long baddly writen post, I'm just excited about all my new stuff!
