It shouldn't be possible, but one time I saw The Strokes and by about a third of the way through the gig every single one of them had fallen asleep.

Although you jest Casablancas did end up having a lie down under the drum riser for a couple of tunes at T in the Park 2004.

Is This It was a masterpiece, as The Nal so succinctly noted, but everyone who has spent more than five minutes on The Strokes know that Room On Fire is their best record.

Nothing the strokes have released is close to a Masterpiece to be quite honest.

I think people must have forgotten all the crap nu-metal and post grunge crap we had to endure before The Strokes saved rock with Is This It.

It instantly changed mainstream music in both the US and the UK, and went on to influence many great bands. It's possible to discuss if it's a masterpiece or not, but its position in music history can't be denied.

Absolutely. Even if they aren't the best at what they do, they influenced a lot of bands in to doing it better.

    • I have no issue with the Primavera crowd in most respects. They’re always friendly, respectful and no hint that there could be trouble at any point.   However…the talking is horrific here. The xx was pretty much ruined for me due to people having conversations with their mates the whole way through. Noticed it from all different nationalities across the weekend…English, Irish, Spanish etc. There seems to be no understanding of the nuances of when it’s okay to talk and when it isn’t. And obviously the sound being quiet at a lot of spots on the main stages exacerbates the issue. That alone has made me reconsider whether I will be coming back, it would probably take a lineup as good as this year (unlikely)

    • I found the vibe a little different to recent editions.. definitely an older crowd, less queer, less Spanish.. certainly has something to do with the lack of Glastonbury this year. And I felt Saturday was a little overcrowded. I‘ve never seen Mordor as full as last night for the xx and Gorillaz. Did not enjoy that too much.
    • Not my favourite year either, despite liking the lineup more than previous years. Not sure what it was, I guess Thursday really put the brakes on things. But yeah I'll be back next year hopefully. And maybe Massive Attack will return... 
    • E-mail summarizing Saturday - Primavera Sound 2026 Journal Day 3. As in previous days, it's going to be on the website soon, I think.
