Description
LP - Limited Edition Blue Vinyl (2023 Reissue).
The Strokes second full-length release was an album that won't cause the stir that its predecessor did, but has a sneaky appeal all its own. Thanks to the quintet's Lower East Side roots, Velvet Underground and Television references abound with these guys, but Boston new wavers the Cars, and in particular their hit-heavy second album, 1979's Candy-O, provide a more suitable point of reference for Room On Fire.
As with Ric Ocasek and company, Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas and his cohorts have a Cars-like knack for sly riffs that creep deeper into ones consciousness with each listen. Not much longer than a half hour from start to finish, this 11-song is modest in intent and execution, and succeeds quite nicely on its own terms.
The album features the return of producer Gordon Raphael from 'Is This It' and consists of a slightly smoother sound than its predecessor. Three singles were released from the album; '12:51', 'Reptilia' and 'The End Has No End'.
