TV Live: The Strokes - "Reptilia" (Conan 2003)

[@homunculusSZN]

My god. That bass tone. Niko is an icon but no one really knows.

[@Khai-ui7oq]

I think just the way he stands makes him an icon to me

[@cameronshryock955]

As a kid I always wondered how he had the same “effect” on his mics in live performances… now I realize his whole damn hand is covering the mic lol. Super effective

[@sagegracemusic5981]

It’s definitely not that. There is a bunch of saturation added

[@jontopielski6227]

It's a distortion box

[@lulla8312]

@@sagegracemusic5981 It is definitely largely that.. try it on a microphone and see what difference it makes. sure, there is an amp involved too but it would sound veery differently if he wasnt holding his hand around the mic like that. especially at 3:08

[@sagegracemusic5981]

@@lulla8312Cupping the mic isn’t going to cause that kind of effect

[@Synthysynthsynth]

So much gets said about what he did with his mic or effects. But whatev. Dude was blessed with a rad voice - that’s the important part.

[@ashrafsahdan5606]

Just watched them last week in Singapore. This song is stupidly good live. Insane! I can die peacefully now.

[@PakeyWakey]

It can't happen soon enough.

Low key it’s the best section of the song. Glad I’m not the only one who feels that way

[@sebastianrubsaamen2257]

Cool! So I’m not the only one thinking this *happy*

[@Oliviux78]

Damn I wish I could’ve seen them in concert! They were sooo good

[@HermitsClog]

They'll probably release a new album next year and then resume their touring. You still have a chance!

[@kendrickjk]

@@HermitsClog i hope sooo omg

[@HermitsClog]

@@kendrickjk Yeah, they recorded it 3 years ago i think but they have a habit of sitting on their albums until they polish them enough. The new abnormal was recorded in 2017 but they released it in 2020
