Newsweek asks: "Are the Strokes A Fraud?"
I'm diggin' their new album Room on Fire (even though the same-ness of all the tracks doesn't seem to diminish the more you listen to it) but with word circulating that tour dates are not selling out or being moved to smaller venues, are seeds of a Strokes backlash already starting to sprout? This Newsweek article ("The Catchy Meaninglessness of the Strokes") doesn't seem auger well for the East Village's most sylish sons. (For details on the Strokes' November residency on Late Night With Conan O'Brien show, click here.)
