    • Man, there's nothing like good, old fashioned, rock and roll... add a bit of industry resentment to that with a double-shot of cynicism, and you get one of the best "new" rock bands going. This album

    • At first, Ray LaMontagne might strike you as just another breathy-voiced knockoff of folk/rock guitarists like John Mayer and Jack Johnson. But he's actually got a better voice than either, he tell

iTunes Music Review - Is This It

  • Is This It

    • 10 out of 5
    • The Strokes
    • Reviewed by Bryan Chaffin
    • Buy this album from Amazon.com
    • Buy this album from iTunes Music Store

    • The Strokes set the music world on fire with this 2001 album, with headlines declaring that the New York band was here to save Rock and Roll. While the band hasn't made as much of a splash since then, Is This It remains one of the best albums in the last 20 years.

      Smart, guitar-driven, but vocal-carried rock songs jump out of this album, allowing us to forget about all of the bad music the record industry tries to foist on us every day. "Last Nite" was the hit on the album, but "The Modern Age," "Is This It," "Barely Legal," and "New York City Cops" are all great listens, too. The entire album reflects the band's roots of The Velvet Underground, The Modern Lovers, The Stooges, and a host of New York bands.

      Favorite Songs: "Last Nite," "The Modern Age," "Is This It," "Barely Legal," and "New York City Cops"
