Just when you thought all hope was lost along come The Strokes to fulfil the promises they made way, way back with their startling debut Is This It. That was 17 years ago, and while the outfit have made plenty worthy of note in the years between then and now, wed be surprised if were the only ones thinking this latest is their best effort since that inaugural outing. Confident but also hungry, rather than bloated and lazy, there plenty here that you wont be able to get away from in a hurry. Brooklyn Bridge To Chorus might define the package best, delivering some powerful pop energy in an all-round homage to and critique of the 1980s, an era revisited again on Bad Decisions, which owes plenty to Billy Idol Generation X classic, Dancing With Myself, with tracks like Why Are Sundays So Depressing diverting to a synthdom route and Not The Same Anymore throwing crooner styles into the mix. Exceptional stuff.
