The strokes - Take it or leave it rare demo

[ImTryingYourLuck]

Oh…. God…… I'm most definitely speechless :/

The Strokes are just indescribably amazing.

[RebirthBeyond]

man i love how this is slowed down.. makes me enjoy this even longer

[ajcasablancas]

Wow this is great.. i wish i was their manager:(  .. Great band though.. they deserve the fucken best!!:P

[ACleverName17]

The solo on here is probably better than the album version

[Bbyboots27]

I love Julian's voice when it sounds like this.

[mariyamy1]

Good God Juliaaaaaaaaann!! OHMYGOD.

This is a fact: His voice is so eargasmic.

And yes. I love this version better than the original.

[OLiwashere]

sounds amazing. i know why they got signed. 

[MrTulip65]

I'm gonna put a load of their demos together and have my own demo comp...oh,wait,is there already a release of theirs like that? - I'm not an uber-fan,see,but I do think they're great :)

[TheBillieWay]

@MrTulip65 Well there are some online but you really gotta organise everything. I've made one and it has like 37 tracks.

[MrTulip65]

@TheBillieWay Cool, man ;)

[Affenprofessor]

[pana619]

[watsaschiller]

zero dislikes, now thats what I like to see

[14tcm]

the intro remembers me of "heads will rol"

[philtpsk]

where did you get it?

[boricuagrl93]

I'd make love to him =]] <3

His music already gives me ear-gasms.

[DeadPixel00]

Julian is the definition of sex; and yes, I'm a 17 year old heterosexual male.

[komraderyan]

@DeadPixel00 ditto

[MrHaircut1]

@DeadPixel00 What the hell are you talking about? Comments like these make no sense.

[slipkid78]

[diggingupdinosaurs]

"take it, my friend..I would..okay..ohyea.."

[BOTARevolution]

The demos sound way better to me

[pullywullypirate]

the solo is better in album version

[MrAldair008]

They play that intro on the First UK Tour

[DIPSHITPOOP]

Dope shit!

Love this part: 2:16 he sounds so grimey but its awesome haha

[SuperP4nd4]

where did you get that kind of songs?

[aphexmandelbrot]

I like this version better.

After the first verse I just like how the guitars feel.

[pillonsin]

[incu114]

[elvergapeluda]

Despite they haven't came like in 3 years, I still like them a lot.

And I'm gonna say it again, they're pretty famous in México and they're always welcome here.

I've enjoyed their music a lot, is one of finest ruck I've ever heard in the latest years.

Regards from México :D

[elvergapeluda]

What does he say on the beggining ?

I should've known, you see is all I know ?

[AJest3r]

Leave me alone, I'm in control.

I'll show what I know, If you would have known, it's all I've known

I THINK, but I'm not sure.

[Lapscale]

[Lapscale]

[3333three]

[giovannoleonardo]

[elvergapeluda]

The strokes are very popular in México, they got a lot of fans among the youth.

They are still as good as they did in the first cd.

[nenamusexD]
