100% you guys should do a Dad-led episode where he gets an album you haven't heard and introduces you to some classic magic. It would really be **TURNING THE TABLES** from what usually happens!
I wanna see you 2 listen to madvillainy.
React to turnstile
Wow so cool that Julian Cassablankis is showing his dad his own album.
Jajaja ❤️
he must have been too busy not to listen to his own son's album lol
LMAOOOO
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Cassablankis"
Strokes inspired The Killers, Kings of Leon, The Editors, Arctic Monkeys and a lot of other stuff, they're fully alive and creating new things now but you can't never forget how long they've been around.
Perfectly said sir. Much respect
Kings of Leon actually opened for The Strokes the first time I saw them live.
And Dinosaur Jr inspired The Strokes…..
I wanna see them react to AM maybe Tranquility Base Hotel + Casino
@@jeremybritanico6628 "I just wanted to be one of the strokes"
The guitars in “The Adults Are Talking” going back and forth is almost like the adults are talking
It’s supposed to sound like a man and woman arguing afaik
just imagine having a quality time like that with your father
guess I'll just keep "imagining"
@@Seth-Fire yeah me too but i must imagine what my father looks like first
@@elpis. 🤣💀💀
I feel the same since my father is an engineer and he is not into music at all 😢
@@elpis. My father looked and sounded like Neil Diamond, I’m pretty sure
Kevin deserves an Oscar for this performance. Almost believed this is his first time hearing his sons album.
No his son needs an Oscar for having such a great voice because of his deep throat (sorry that I just randomly comment this one year later but I just watched this lmao 😂)
Do you mean this as a joke for how many times you've rewatched this video?
there is something so satisfying about watching someone listen to something you've heard thousands of times. makes you feel like ur listening to it for the first time all over again in a way im obsessed with this series. it's also cool his dad clearly has a musical background
yes! this is my favourite thing about reactions.
yes same, i love watching reaction Videos from albums that i love. I dont know this album but I love listening to new music with those guys!
yes thats exactly how it feels lol
facxxxxxx
agreed!
“He’s got some deep throat just like you, eh?” Had me laughing just as hard lmao
Bloody hilarious 😂
"They're playing the skinflute" got me lol
What makes the strokes great is that they kept their original sound while still adjusting to the new instrumentals and sounds coming out
I love songs from all the phases of the strokes, and I think the main commonality and thing that holds the phases together is Julians vocals and melody writing. It’s hard for me to agree they kept their “original sound” when you compare this album to the earlier classics. To me overall it’s a different feel. I prefer this newer “vibey” sound over the more grungy garage rock sound of old, that being said I still love the old feel when I’m in the mood for it. I guess it just depends how you define what a bands “sound” is.
There is truth in what you’re saying as I think about it more. They adapted and changed without losing themselves or the elements that hooked people in the beginning. They certainly didn’t “sell out” or go formulaic. So in that sense you’re right. And I wonder if I’m looking at it too micro, and when you look at the big picture they have always had “their sound” and nothing else sounds quite like The Strokes. I guess what I want to know is if you look at their character arc and compare it with other bands natural progressions, would it be fair to say they completely changed their sound, or that they kept their original sound. At the end of the day, it’s good music and I love where their arc has taken them and can’t say the same about all the bands I’ve followed throughout my life.
Yeah I heard Brooklyn bridge to chorus and couldn't figure out what album it was on. Then I saw it just came out 2020 and that blew me away.
Yeah they have stuck with their own sound, without trying to satisfy all people in the world. Arctic monkeys eg. have made more slow music the last couple of years maybe to hit a another target group
Actually they upgrade their old sound at the final level. Its totally different and better but you can the hear the old sound in the mix
Ode to the Mets is honestly one of their best songs. And that says so much because the strokes are so good.
"drums please fab" is cheff's kiss
this song is so good fr
its like a leaf on the top of an aesthetic plate@@elpis.
Honestly top 5 Strokes songs. What a great way to end a brilliant album
it's funny he compared them to The Killers. When The Strokes first released "Is This It?", Brandon Flowers of the Killers heard it, scrapped their debut and rewrote it because he was so inspired by them.
Also Interpol
Funny he compared them to The Cars because it's obvious The Strokes are ripping off and have been for some time since Casablancas is a fan of them.
The Killers had "is this it" and "turn on the bright lights" on repeat while making "hot fuss"
@@Ennui. Did they?! That’s so lame copying contemporaries.
@@cactaceous well i wouldn't say they blatantly copied them, but definitely took inspiration from the strokes and interpol...
I mean, in the early 2000's there was a little explosion of garage rock, and the killers were definitely a part of it...
But imo they're not nearly as successful as the other two... Sure they had Mr. Brightside and a couple of other hits, but the rest of their discography is not as good as interpol and the strokes.
selfless is my favorite. it holds such a special place in my heart. just the intro makes me cry.
Definitely a song for when the winter depression kicks in for me
Selfless is my fav too, but from this album? It’s so hard to pick a favorite they’re all so good.
I wonder why they not playing this live more often.
Me too I didn’t know exactly why I was crying at the start of this one but man it hits deep
Just to clarify: Billy Idol was given a writing credit for Bad Decisions. So, the band acknowledged their influence, it was intentional
Julian even said the point of the album was kind of to be boring. Lots of the music is not original in some sense but they made it in a strokes way. 😅
That is so fucking cool
Doesn’t change the fact that the song is a rip off and is uninspired
@@CaptainFracture nah, chill bro.
To me it also sounds a bit like I Melt With You by Modern English.
Ode to the Mets has to be one of their best songs
Yep, I specially like At the door and Ode to the mets. Maybe because they were the first ones I listened to, but they are beautiful.
Gives me chills every time I listen to it, so fantastic.
favorite song rn
Heck yes
It’s beyond incredible
Wonder what he would think of your other band The Voidz!
whoa dude i love your videos bro! you should do more radiohead videos
@@il.dj.k agreed
you're watching reaction vids too :o
Yoo good idea
we ned it!!
My favorite thing about The Strokes is how their 2 guitars sound like they are fighting with each other but the fight is choreographed so that it sounds like a beautiful dance and you can hear this on all of their albums. Like sometimes the guitars sound like opposing forces but other times they work together and both variations work so well
Why Are Sundays So Depressing? Is one of those songs that just gets better as it goes on and it sounds just as fresh as it did the first time I heard it. The outro might just be the best music I’ve ever heard in my life, it’s just the most catchy, perfect melody and instrumentation imaginable. Whole album is a home run for The Strokes though, they really came back with a purpose on this record
Yeah, i think WASSD is too much better than the adults are talking
@@lucasheredia3579 very good take I think both songs are good but I like wassd a lot more
I want your time
@@Agentshadling dont ask me questions
I definitely agree with you mate. The chord progressions are fucking amazing. It’s one of my favorite Strokes songs ever.
Billy Idol actually has a writer's credit on bad decisions so it's intentional
Yeah it's pretty sick that Kevin caught that on his own.
@@Harry_Two the guy knows his stuff
i see that submarine pfp 👀
If Connor hasn’t heard some of the stuff Kevin is talking about they should do a “Son reacts to” series
then it will really be turning the tables
putting the tables back
They should just alternate every week
@@cameronsmusicretreat returning the tables
I was thinking this
As a dad in his 40's myself, yes...we love The Strokes. Being in the same age group, they are infinitely cooler than a lot of us.
Lol i wanted a dad like u.
Not a joke btw :c
there literally isnt a single bad/weak song in this whole album. all are bops
Once you guys finish listening to Is This It, make sure to tell your Dad that Julian wrote the entire thing himself; every instrument you hear and vocals were all written solely by him. Guy's a genius.
It’s true, the strokes is just one guy: Kevin Parker
@@lukehipkin3914 lmao
@@lukehipkin3914 well played, sir
His dad will be so proud of him for writing a whole album on his own
not to be a dick, but on their latest albums the band have collaborated writing the songs. Early strokes however all him
Julian actually used to lock himself in his room for hours hearing The Cars, don't ask me how i know that, biggest fan.
Your dad knows his stuff
Kurt Cobain's first song he learned on guitar was "My best friend's girlfriend" by The Cars. Interesting FACTS.
@@daryldraws8083my best friend's girl*
Julian is maybe my favorite rock singer ever and I love how your dad instantly realizes how truly great Julian is
What’s funny about him wishing Julian’s voice was mixed higher is that this album had him way more up front and clear than the others and I’m pretty sure Julian was resistant to that decision. Glad he compromised though because it really suits this album
“Julian Casablancas showing his own album to Jordan Peterson”
Lmfao
As a die-hard Strokes fan, this is seriously my favorite album out of their whole discography, and those tunes were on loop during my teen years getting me through stuff. But The Adults Are Talking alone slapped me in the face and told me this would turn my whole favorite albums list upside down.
Cheers to that. I'm familiar with the hits from The Strokes, and that Daft Punk song with Julian, but this video gave me the motivation to dig into their discography. Can't wait to explore!
@@lorenheckard5146 make sure to check out the voidz too they have some incredible songs as well
You mean Hawaii by the Strokes?- er Tally-Ho by the Clean, I mean... uhh. Just kidding I love the Strokes.
@@lorenheckard5146 that was my intro into the Strokes as well about 2 years ago and 10/10 recommend they are now my 2nd or 3rd favorite band/artist ever lol
Bro u shld rly listen at is this it, the whole A side is beautiful. And it has my favourite song someday on it. Also check out call it fate call it karma it’s a completely different vibe but it’s a beautiful song trust me. Been a die hard strokes fan since before I can remember.
You should show your dad "human sadness" by The voids. Julian does a lot of really interesting things on that track, and its generally a really powerfull experience.
Favourite song
Tyranny is extremely underrated. Whole album is golden.
@@PACKTdotSPACE I love voidz so much. Definitely underrated.
@@Coolguysup they need to react to the voidz for sure!
Only possible reaction: crying.
Never thought that Julian Casablancas and Jordan Peterson would have such great screen chemistry
Dad only likes this album just because his son made it, what a supportive Dad
The "deep throat" jokes got me cackling like a hyena.. that says something about my sense of humor doesn't it LMAO
Lol
Hahaha
I'm literally having the worst day of my life and ended up here and that dude's dad in the shower pumping his products made me laugh so hard that I actually cried
sameee
I'm 63 years old and the reaction Julian's Dad had, is exactly the reaction I had when my son introduced the album to me while we were camping this past summer. A totally awesome album. Been listening to it daily. Who says kids today can't make music like it was when I was a teen. Keep on rockin".
the members are 40+ years old, not kids
@@nataliatc1 they're kids to him though. I'm a couple of years younger than some of The Strokes and my dad's 60+.
listening to your dad be inspired by the music you're showing him and wanting to incorporate it into his own music is really a treat
This album is a solid 10
This and Arctic Monkeys' AM are the 2 best rock albums of the decade.
@@user-tv2bk2ul9tAM is not that good
@@user-tv2bk2ul9tthis came out in 2020 tho
The Strokes are original. But they have countless influences written all over their sleeves. Since I am an old person, I love it.
The joy from your dad at the beginning of every song brings a smile to my face.
Really cool that Dad picked up the Dancing With Myself melody on Bad Decisions. The Strokes actually gave Billy Idol a writing credit for the track because of their similarities. Great video as always!
There’s a few writing credits across the album. Eternal Summer, as good as it is, is an elaborate cover of The Psychedelic Furs song The Ghost in You.
Honestly I'm surprised Conner didn't mention it. I thought it was pretty obvious it was ripped heavily from that, its just such an iconic melody.
A lot of those "Synths" are actually just Nick Valensi on the Guitar. Julain talked about it on Needle drop I believe and I saw them live recently and was surpised as well.
Valensi is underrated. Not by Strokes fan but definitely by lots.
incredible guitar player, he's been doing that forever, though. The melody in 12:51 sounds very synth-y
@@dahliafiend i personally LOVE Albert, but you're right. Nick is great. Like you can't have one without the other
Yup. He blew up a lot of amps getting that sound. He would turn the tone down and jack the volume all the way up
@@reveloharry that is synth, accompanied with guitar
I cried the first time I listened to at the door. Such a great song
Bad decisions has literally become my favorite song over a year. That song just sits with me in a very almost personal way.
Sounds like you need to start making better decisions
ode to the mets for me
It's why are Sunday's so depressing for me
Not the same anymore for me
Love you for having one of my all time fav albums on the wall with Sufjan there. 11/10
Same, definitely hoping for a reaction of that at some point.
Illinois one of your favorites?
@Bandstand The Age of Adz is better
@@conoroberst6263 @Youropinionisvalid
@@Bandstand for real people can’t respect other peoples opinions today shit sucks
The guitars ‘going back and forth’ in the adults are talking is reflective of adults going back and forth in a conversation
🤯
lol
How incredibly perceptive…
Please do more reactions to the other The Strokes albums. I enjoyed your dad’s reaction and the input that he brings to the conversation.
‘The New Abnormal’ is by far my favorite album of 2020. Great to see rock back on this channel.
I agree with the masses about doing that Interpol album in the background! Another Classic!
100% aggree with this comment.
This is a refined version of the strokes. By the way, I’m glad to see that you have “turn on the bright lights” in the background. I have heard that album about a thousand times.
they should totally do turn on the bright lights
Yeah, we need an Interpol reaction
Refined is such an apt description.
Amazing album along with Antics. It looks so badass back there wow.
This reminded me of Julian's feature on Daft Punk's Random Access Memories- now that would be a great album to react to.
Watching someone experience The Strokes for the first time was a real treat. I think we all recall feeling exactly the same way 20+ years ago
12:30 literally me every time while listening any The Strokes song
Surprised that your dad didn’t know about the existence of such an influential band to so many other rock/indie rock bands born in this century! You just revealed a much better version of the world to him, love the concept of this channel
Gotta do Virtue by The Voidz. Julian’s experimentation on that album influenced a lot of the sounds on this one. Also, in my humble opinion, this is the best Strokes album
Strong Agree, they Definitely need to review virtue
Tyranny gang rise up (Human Sadness should be a religion)
Need a Phrazes For The Young reaction
@@moonillusions832 true. Human Sadness is a masterpiece.
Would prefer to see Tyranny, personally think it’s a more complete album and i love how they went all in on the experimental sounds/melodies. But I wouldn’t be complaining at a Virtue reaction!
You have such a wonderful relationship with your dad. I wish I could talk and hang out with my dad so comfortably like this. This was such a fun video and it was wonderful seeing someone falling in love with music that so many of us already have a deep connection with
I wish I had a dad
@@Nights_Shadow same
I know that everyone thinks that “The Adults are Talking” is one of the best-but to me, it really is one of the greatest of all time. It fills me so much nostalgia, and the guitar between verses sounds like people talking back and forth. I relate to it a lot and it just reminds me of my own experiences. I used to listen to it on loop everyday, all day, during high school; really made me feel something.
Your dad was right about The Cars influence. Doing Candy-O would be cool. Son reacts to dads favorites is a neat mix on your format.
Your dad was also right about the Billy Idol touches on Bad Decisions. It’s basically a mix between New Order and Billy Idol.
and Modern English’s I Melt With You
Yep he got it right away, they even covered the cars in 2011 at Glasto
They even give billy idol song writing credit for bad decisions
I wish my father and I had a relationship like this. Really love the content, brings a smile to my face!
The Strokes are just such a fun band to follow. This album especially, every track just makes me both happy and sad and stirs up feelings of nostalgia and desperation. Such a versatile fun album. Favorite tracks are The Adults Are Talking, Brooklyn Bridge To Chorus and Why Are Sundays So Depressing. So full and well mixed! This was an amazing reaction, love the true appreciation for music
We NEED another strokes reaction before the year is over!!!!!
My favourite 2020 album. This album saved me through beggining of lockdown.
Same feeling
Pretty ironic the dad says the album brings him back to the 80s but for me it reminds me of the night the album came out playing Minecraft with my buddies while the world was shut down
"He's got some deep-throat like you eh?"
Couldn't have said it better lol
Your dad has a very good hearing, one of the best channels of music reactions I have seen, you should show him Sticky Fingers. another great band of these times.
I absolutely love this album. Selfless is one of my favorite songs by them
Great album. Absolutely no misses in my opinion and is just a colourful explosion of great music and the strokes having fun.
On a drearier note, we need that Turn On the Bright Lights reaction. The basslines are just waiting to be savoured!!
I smiled so much at this reaction. The parts where it hits so hard for me and everyone else also hit for your dad INSTANTLY. This album is just full of ear catching mixing, instrumental tones, and vocal passages it's so much dopamine
Julians ''deep throat'' singing gives me the ''ball shivers''
My favourite band, my favourite voice. Their music is almost like the feeling of nostalgia. Muchas ball shivers.
I've never listened to this album or the strokes, but I knew Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus almost by heart and I was really confused why. Then I realized it was in the newest MLB The Show, and I played that game for hundreds of hours lmao. great video though, enjoy seeing you guys explore music together.
I LOVE that we're back in the rock world, where this channel kicked off with Radiohead. I feel rock is more in Kevin's wheelhouse, and so his enthusiasm on this ep was contagious! TNA was maybe my favorite album of last year, so I absolutely loved this reaction
Nice. Yeah i think hiphop is more fun to watch bc its a completely new world for him.
@@stijn8588 yea I agree with u but also there's a new world to him when it comes to the strokes type of music. It's truly amazing seeing him get mindblown by all kinds of genres he hasn't heard before.
The thought that the drums on The Adults Are Talking are electronic is an understandable one, but Fabrizio is just so precise that they sound a little electronic. However, as far as I know, the whole album is all acoustic drums. Super impressive. And the solo breakdown in Selfless has become one of my absolute favorites. I wake up with it in my head all the time.
I don't know if anyone noticed the finger drumming the dad did at 6:10 but damn that was sick
Best reaction channel already, we need an IGOR reaction.
Yes
They’re doing Flower Boy before Igor😔😔
I'd do Flower Boy first, CMIYGL, and then Igor. Just so Kevin can appreciate better the impact and switch Tyler made by dropping something like Igor
No
@@davidj.r.6657 completely agree with that
This is one of the best mixed albums of all time
rick. rubin.
I love this album to death. I LOVE THE STROKES. It so cool to hear people enjoying it too.
Hearing someone react so positive to your fav bands album is amazing.
I need you to know how much I appreciate what you’re doing, this is some of the best content out there
❤️
I was so happy with this album, I listened to The Strokes as a teen and everytime I go back to them it reminds me of those times, and this album made me feel that way but with entirely new songs, it was special, this band is very special.
Gotta show Dad their debut album at some point, an all timer.
all of y'alls vids have been my comfort zone recently, love the commentary and banter so much, and y'all listen to such stellar records. Makes me miss my dad too watching how much y'all get along. would love to see you guys do Comedown Machine or Angles !!
Gotta give Random Access Memories by Daft Punk a listen.
An immaculately produced album with an incredible Julian Casablancas performance on it.
please!
Instant Crush been stuck in my head recently.
that album is full of bangers
@@johannmayer9932 touch is my favorite!!
@@johannmayer9932 touch and instant crush are soooo good its crazy
Man I hope you guys get to go through at least one more Strokes album, hopefully two!
Is this it a must and further down the road I guess Room on Fire would be nice too
Really cool that you picked up on the Frank Ocean connection! “Ivy” was inspired by “Under Control” by The Strokes
Wow I never knew that!
@37:17 YESSSSSS!!!! I fucking love Keane and Tom, hearing you guys recognize that similarity as well makes me real happy man, its honestly astonishing how much range is in New Abnormal just generally not just with Julian's vocals, that album is basically the only good that came out of 2020 for me.
Is This It and Room on Fire were the albums that really got me into music and while First Impressions and on kind disappointed me, those first two are still among my all time favorite, so I don't say this lightly, but I truly think The New Abnormal is the best album The Strokes have ever put out. The music world wasn't poised for TNA the same way as it was in 2001 for Is This It, but TNA is peak song-writing, lyricism and creativity for the Strokes. It's fantastic.
I actually really like First Impressions and I feel like I’m the only one.
@@jacobpullen6949 It was my friend’s favorite Strokes album back in HS too :) I think there’s some cool tracks, and even if I don’t totally love the style of it, that it’s a good stepping stone to some later Voidz sounds (feel the same way about Angles). I would rank FIOE higher if they cut 4-5 tracks from the mid/back of the album ehich to me just sound super uninspired, but there’s still plenty to like.
@@jacobpullen6949 It's my favorite strokes album. :)
I still think Room On Fire is their best album, but The New Abnormal comes sooooo damn close. The fact that we waited 7 years for a new album and they dropped an arguable masterpiece is so fulfilling as a fan.
@@inordirection_ It’s probably my 4th favorite, after the big 3 everyone talks about, but I put it just a little bit below those. Tracks like Juicebox, Visions of Division, Heart in a cage, and Razorblade are all among my very favorute Strokes tracks. I really like the heavier, on edge style it goes for a lot.
This album has such detailed nuances with the chords. The mixing style is so subtle but fascinating
Really love your dad's enthusiasm right off the bat. What a cool dynamic you two have. Great vid!
I love this album so much, super excited for y’all to do other strokes albums!!!
This Album seems and sounds like a collection of their best songs, but no it's just their latest album!
Didn’t expect this reaction since you are the frontman of The Strokes I assumed your dad would already have heard it. but this was a nice surprise.
I’ve been planning this joke since this video was announced didn’t know you’d mention it in the intro.
It's not actually his dad, it's Jordan Peterson
You NEED to go back to this and show him MORE STROKES!!!!!! PLEASE!!
The Strokes, Julian and his dad listening The new abnormal, Dad Jokes, this video has everything. Great video!
Keep covering the different genres. It’s so cool to see The Strokes on this channel!
This is turning out to be a very memeable video 😂
oh no !
@@kevinfromttt are you actually Kevin?
@@mxrefxs All Kevin all the time :)
Kevin talking about Julian: "he's got some deep throat" lmao
Can’t wait for an episode on Is This It
Love the Interpol record in the back
They need to react to it!
Love this album. You guys gotta do Turn On The Bright Lights soon
I think that a lot of praise should also be given to Rick Ruben who produced the whole album. Love this album...
my mans julian casablanca really thought he could just put on a beanie and wouldn’t know was him
Really hope Dad went back to listen to their previous Albums...curious to get his thoughts on tracks like Reptillia, One way trigger, welcome to Japan lol basically all the previous albums
seeing someone else appreciate this album as much as I do makes me so happy bro so glad your dad enjoyed it please keep reacting to the rest of their discography
Connor can I just say you have excellent taste in music. I love basically every album you’ve shown your dad so far, only one I hadn’t heard was Father John Misty and have had that on repeat since I watched the video
Hey Bloopy !!!
This is one of my favourite albums. Love watching you guys notice and appreciate the little stuff !!!
