Bruce so you don't like the Strokes, and they're the new
"Moby Grape for the '00 Generation"...I like Moby Grape,
esp. the first album, so I'm not sure what you mean, and
I didn't get the joke, I guess.. Is this a reference to the
Strokes' bad management, their misguided A&R guy,
and/or their "sad, child-like, completely panicked
mimicking of the first album"? ...do the Strokes' simply
suffer (in your opinion) from the "sophomore slump" like
so many before them, or is there some kind of special
significance in saying they're like Moby Grape...? You're
not saying that the only good album by the Moby Grape
is their first one, are you? Certainly the Strokes and Moby
Grape don't sound alike...can you expand on this a bit?
