The strokes are a garage rock/post-punk band, formed in 1998. Also along with the white stripes brought back mainstream media interest in garage rock. And many other garage rock bands and post-punk bands became big along with them. in 2001 the strokes realeased is this it. The album has notable songs like last nite,hard to explain and nyc cops. The bands music and style has influenced the majority of music to after in the 2000s. The bands dress style is usually somewhat 70s retro,vintage. So a certain style would be blazers or a leather jacket with skinny jeans and chuck. taylors. The strokes may be the #1 reason you might see lots of guys dressed that way.
Other 2000s bands like the strokes are the libertines,arctic monkeys,the hives,interpol,franz ferdinand,the killers,tokyo police club.

Get the the strokes mug.A great genre of british alternative rock in the nineties. Made popular by bands suede and blur in the begining. Most britpop bands main influences are the beatles,the smiths,and the stone roses. U.s. Reconition started with blurs album leisure in 1991.Then latter in 1994 oasis released definently maybe and blur released parklife which started the battle of britpop mainly in the u.k. Though. Blur had a more sucsessful single won the battle. But in 1996 what's the story mourning glory came out kicked blurs asses. In 1997 britpop died because oasis be here now album was mediocre camparred to there other albums. This lead blur lead singer to say fuck britpop and release a self titiled album that nothing to do with britpop. It had one the greatest songs of the nineties song 2. That was influenced by american alternative rock.people seem to confused with was brit pop.radiohead not britpop,the verve post-britpop.with britpop dead came post-britpop. Good thing post-punk/garage rock revival came out cause post-britpop wayyy to soft.
Brit1: I wish oasis album be here now didn't suck cause here's post-britpop. Brit2: yeah cause coldplay and the verve are to soft and radioheads to boring.

Get the Britpop mug.The act of a person being hit on the button. Usually the chin or behind the ear. Then going unconcious.
I saw a mma fight and guy got hit hard on the chin by a punch. He dropped and layed on the ground frozen for about 20-30 seconds. He got knocked out cold.

Get the rap music mug.A really shitty music genre that's still going strong in the 2000s. It was good in the 90s but bands like bad charlette,simple plan and new found glory had to ruin it. Its just pop-rock. The second wave of this crap is boys like girls,all time low, and we the kings. To play this music the lead singer has sound like a 5 year old boy, the guitars have to be very lite, isen't that cute?
Teen: How do I start a pop-punk band. Indie rocker: oh just ripoff blink-182. You'll make it big man. Teen: okay cool!!

Get the girlfriend mug.Indie rock is short for a rock band that's on independent record label. Its not a sound or a music style. The media has apparently confused or brain washed people who don't know what it is to start believing it is tho. Really since the 70s and 80s indie rock bands have gotten mainstream attention without being on a major label. Notable since the 70s to 2000s are joy division,the smiths,oasis,blur,the libertines,arcade fire. Which are all alternative. So when someone says its all the same or is a sound it makes no sense cause theres hardrock bands,heavy metal bands,punk rock bands and more different rock genres on a indie label.
Girl: have you heard indie rock like the killers,death cab for cutie,the strokes? they all have the indie sound. Guy: no those bands are on major labels and indie rock does not have a sound. But I love those bands. Girl: oh!
