EP58: The Strokes' Is This It

Released in 2001, Is This It is a landmark album not just for New Yorkers The Strokes but for the future of rock & roll. Came at the time when nu-metal was at its peak, The Strokes sent a jolt to the system with its catchy guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and frontman Julian Casablancas' distinctive vocals. One that's still celebrated by fans & critics alike - we go Track-By-Track into the seminal LP that helped to define the sound of early 2000s rock music.
