	The Strokes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Strokes are an American rock band that rose to fame in the early 2000s as a leading group in the garage rock revival.
		Subsequently, The Strokes became the subject of enormous hype, causing a great divide amongst rock fans, albeit mostly hipsters and independent magazines.
		Comedian/actor David Cross has long been friends with The Strokes, and makes an appearance in their video for "Juicebox" as an obnoxious radio DJ not unlike the type he mocks in his comedy routine.

	Stroke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In ischemic stroke, which occurs in approximately 85-90% of strokes, a blood vessel becomes occluded and the blood supply to part of the brain is totally or partially blocked.
		As ischemic stroke is due to a thrombus (blood clot) occluding a cerebral artery, a patient is given antiplatelet medication (aspirin, clopidogrel, dipyridamole), or anticoagulant medication (warfarin), dependent on the cause, when this type of stroke has been found.
		Stroke rehabilitation is the process by which patients with disabling strokes undergo treatment to help them return to normal life as much as possible by regaining and relearning the skills of everyday living.

		In fact, the Strokes are a New York City band through and through; like the Velvet Underground, these are a bunch of uptown artsy types elegantly slumming downtown to the tried and tested themes of sex, drugs, and rock & roll.
		The Strokes are a fairly unique band it seems, often having distinctive traits like a subtle effect applied to the vocals, electronic drum beats, and making their guitars sound like they do in the beginning of "Someday" (no other band that I know of has guitars that sound like that).
		While it may be said that perhaps the music of the Strokes does not seem as heavily focused on so much as the image they portray to the media and in their publicity, they are a band that delivers.

		In fact, the Strokes are a New York City band through-and-through; like the Velvet Underground, these are a bunch of uptown artsy types elegantly slumming downtown to the tried-and-tested themes of sex, drugs and rock and roll.
		Their singer/songwriter, the fantastically named Julian Casablancas, delivers his lyrics with a weary nonchalance that belies his age on songs such as the title track, "Soma", "Hard to Explain" and the altogether wonderful "Barely Legal", while the band recall the likes of Television and the Stooges on "NYC Cops", "Last Night" and "The Modern Age".
		Within a week of listening to them, the strokes became my favorite band, as a group they are very unique in their style and their sound.

	The Strokes Tickets - The Strokes Concert Tickets
		The Strokes lived up to the hype when they delivered their debut full-length, Is This It, in the U.K. in 2001.
		Still, the Strokes undoubtedly helped open up the door at commercial radio for the garage rock sound favored by such acts as the White Stripes and the Hives.
		Instead, the Strokes reunited Gordon Raphael, who produced their debut album, on Room On Fire, which was released in the fall of 2003.

		The rest of the hip Manhattan quintet shapes their streetwise, satisfyingly gritty garage rock songs with swaggering conviction; especially noteworthy are the vibrant, spiky guitar tones of Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond, Jr.
		Hey, The Strokes may smack of the '70s, but the styles they cop are timeless and eternally relevant -- and they're damn good at those styles -- so their sound doesn't feel the least bit dated.
		The group formed in 2000 after most of its members dropped out of various New York-area colleges, and almost immediately created a major buzz on the strength of their live performances and their electric three-song demo, This Modern Age, which got picked up and released as an EP by Rough Trade Records in early 2001.

		The Strokes' December 2000 dates at the Mercury Lounge and the Bowery Ballroom not only gained them a manager (Ryan Gentles, who booked them at those clubs), but also helped Strokes mania reach critical mass in New York.
		Meanwhile, the Strokes' acclaim reached the U.K. and grew to massive proportions over the course of the year.
		The Strokes opted for an abstract pattern on the cover and removed the song "New York City Cops," feeling the song was inappropriate in the wake of the terrorist attacks that struck New York prior to the album's release; the planned B-side, "When It Started," took its place.

		The Strokes seem to have a rather annoying habit of picking some of their worst tracks as singles.
		The Strokes guitar sound is so distinctive it makes you want to pick up a guitar and amp yourself, just to try copying it.
		I think i may have this opinion because i was a bit of a late comer to the Strokes scene and actually heard most of 'Room on Fire' before 'Is This It?'.

		Their prospects dangerously over-inflated by pundits who often hailed their debut as nothing short of rock-messianic, New York City's Strokes got a lesson in cynical rock-press dynamics when their biz-troubled, if similarly toned, '03 follow-up was dutifully dismissed as the proverbial sophomore slump.
		The Strokes second CD was good but a pretty safe continuation of their debut.
		This album has great songs such as you only live once,On the other side,heart in a cage,ask me anything,ize of the world.Overall this cd is a great, diffrent it shows a diffrent side of the strokes witch is good but this one is one of their best album yet.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| What's wrong with the Strokes?
		The Strokes' sound is a lean and lithe mélange of Television, Blondie and the Velvet Underground: plain, tough vocals, straightforward guitars, steady rhythms and the casual art-pop meets rock 'n' roll attitude of those bands.
		Compared to the Strokes, though, Green Day had two albums in their pocket when they hit the major labels, and At the Drive In had three albums out before signing with Virgin.
		The only time the Strokes were truly an "indie band" themselves was when they were an unsigned act.

		In 2001 The Strokes emerged onto the music scene, picked it up by the scruff of the neck and gave it a much needed shaking down.
		Like so many underground NYC rock bands, the Strokes first generated publicity in the U.K., though it didn't take long for their no-frills sound to catch on at home.
		In 2001, The Strokes' highly anticipated first album, IS THIS IT, made it onto plenty of year-end Top Ten lists despite the inevitable backlash against the hype machine that helped put their album on the charts.

		So maybe my expectations were a little high with this one as well, but, let's be honest: The Strokes are past their prime already.
		By the end of Vision of Division (track 6), I had a smile plastered on my face, thinking this was the best album the Strokes had released and definitely a candidate for my album of the year.
		The Strokes clearly were trying something new throughout the last 8 tracks of the album, trying to experiment with their sound more.
