Till the album comes out, I am pretty sure they'll change the titles.... I know Julian is pretty difficult when it comes to title of songs......

there are also 6 more as-yet-untitled songs. those and the 8 titles above have all been recorded but are currently in the mixing stage. do you have any questions about the specific songs named above?

 

[Cammy]

I want to ask a question... but i dont know what to ask. Do you know how many songs are going to be on this up coming album?

I have some descriptions of some of the above-mentioned songs. I do not know how many on the LP but I would guess between 12 and 16.

 

[Kimkhuu]

I wouldn't be surprised if the 3rd CD contained 11 songs..... Ahh the magic number!

 

[Cammy]

yeh, i think theyll do it different this time tho kinmkhuu. So i expected a couple more maybe bout 13 or 14 songs
and lil smoochems im willing to hear any discription of any songs that you know of, so anything you have to say im interested

The record companies require 11 songs hence the 'magic' number. Jules is also a bit lazy and incredibly insecure about writing songs, so he produces little material and discards a lot of it. Unless he gets over that part of his development as an artist, believe that you'll never see more than 11 songs per album (but there are always b-sides in the wings, e.g. I Can't Win)

Oh nice I just found this thread. I love the Strokes! Keep it up!

I have a question though.....they have a really cool Style..I just love it.

Are there any Girls/Women who dress in a way kinda like that? How would you describe it? Just Rock Star Style?
Kate Moss is one that crosses my mind, but are there any others? I'm sick of all these hundreds of Boho-Wannabes running around lately it is so sickening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm searching for people with really different styles!

 

[Manuva]

I dress like that, I'd call it Indie.
Seriously, Julian and Nick are two of my style icons..

3rd LP preview- lyrics

and lil smoochems im willing to hear any discription of any songs that you know of, so anything you have to say im interested [/QUOTE]

'juice box' might be the first single release.

LYRICS:
'razor blade': "my feelings are more important than yours. the world's in your hand or it's at your throat."

'ask me anything': "we named a summer camp after you. dont be a cocoanut. we could drag it out but thats for other bands to do.got nothing to give. got no reason to live. got nothing to hide. i will fight to survive. i wish i wasnt so shy."
very minimal song, jules sings and only music is nick on mellotron.

'heart in a cage': "i dont want what you want. i dont feel what you feel. im stuck in a city but i belong in a field."

'killing lies': "dont think everything is gonna stay the same."

'evening sun': "they love you or they hate you. they thrill you or sedate you. they dont ever let you be."

untitled #1: "I hate them all. i hate myself for hating them"

untitled #2: "it was all just a dream. today they talk about us & tomorrow they wont care."

untitled #3: "i can still see yesterday sailing away. an entire generation that has nothing to say."

Totally in LOVE with THE STROKES

 

[Cammy]

wow thanks lil smoochems

 

[Yppe]

I've heard rumours about a tour around Europe at the end of the year, but I don't know nothing about if it's true or not. I've never seen them live and I would love it if they were coming, so anyone knows if they will be touring Europe next winter?

 

[MissAnia]

Wow, I hope that's true... I just need to see them live

 

[SanSalvadorGirl]

Oh that would be so great!!! I would be the first to get a ticket
