As far as Arctic Monkeys vs. The Strokes, I find it hard to quantify by comparing individual members of the group. I think it's about how they work together as a whole. Maybe one drummer has more technical skill than another, but that doesn't matter so much. For example, Meg White's not the greatest drummer, but that quality was part of what made The White Stripes. I love both TS and AM, but there's just something about The Strokes that I relate to more. Totally a sentimental thing, I guess.

@redhockeycab gotta agree. I love both bands, but Matt is not only a better drummer than Fab, but he's one of the better drummers out there right now, period. Alex is a good guitarist, but he's not as good as Albert or Nick. Nikolai is a great bassist. It's hard to really say which band is better, they're both amazing in different aspects. Both have four albums, but Angles, IMO, really brings The Strokes down a notch. Their first three were amazing, but I'm not a fan of Angles.

@bumjigger

well said. no comparison indeed.

[skymypie]

@redhockeycab yeah, I also think that matt is better than fab. And I love both bands, I just prefer the stokes to the arctic monkeys. Anyway it's good to see that there are many people with great taste in music.

[redhockeycab]

@skymypie well it's the strokes' version that's better. but i think arctic monkeys are a better band all around definitely. though nikolai is a killer bassist, fab isn't really that great a drummer, especially compared to AM's, matt helders. actually, come to think of it, both the strokes' guitarists are better than both arctic monkeys'. but i don't think the strokes have made as much good music as arctic monkeys.

@ElectronicLarry Both are great bands, I would have to go with the Arctic Monkeys though Alex Turner is just great. But then again Julian is like my hero.
