yet Clairo gets accused of being a plant, but never Julian
HMMMMM

I mean, all of The Strokes members are sons of rich imigrantes
That's not what I meant, Julian had a bad relationship with his father, and Virtue is an anti-Trump album

Julian is good though

>I JUST WANTED TO BE ONE OF THE STROKES
how could she not have heard of them?

this.
no denying they were all trustfund kids, but julian was way astranged from his dad, it was his mom who helped him pay the bills. the most "help" he got from his dad was that he went to the offices of casablancas modeling once and gave a bunch of invites to models, or more often he'd go to a modeling party and give out invites there (i think he did that a few times) but it was all without john casablancas' knowledge. julian didnt really talk to his dad until his band was established.

albert hammond sr on the other hand (an accomplished musician and songwriter on his own part) gave his son a credit card with which to pay rent and buy all of their equipment (amps, effects, instruments, a fucking PA system) rented out their practice space.

that's literally at least $10,000 invested right there, plus he supported them when they started to tour.

however, he had no hand in getting them a record deal, the band decided (or rather had the luxury) or going the traditional route: they played live a million times and tested their material for YEARS before they went and recorded an EP that got Rough Trade's attention.

the band got the opportunity to play live so many times because they were master-marketeers (as i said, inviting models to their gigs, playing in "cool" venues through contacts, making some sweet stationary invites, etc. and they were all cute and acted like a gang.

the book sucks, but if you actually want to know how it went down you can read Meet Me in the Bathroom (which is basically a 90s-2000s rich hipster version of Please Kill Me)

It's really shocking how completely fucking gay normies are, a group of huge fags with rich daddies go to fucking art school together in Manhattan and all suck each other and decide they're going to start a rock and roll band, The Strokes is huge fucking losers cosplaying as a rock band, mediocre music for people with mediocre lives, eat shit forever

I got something you can Stroke you fucking idiot

lmao shutup

the book doesn't suck. legit the only bad thing is all that yeah yeah yeahs shit.

Yeah maybe because clairo is shit and has no substance in her music so she relies on this "self made indie lofi aesthetics"

Based.

the strokes are actually talented musicians though, clairo is a boring generic hack

Are they actually related?

Clairo isn't honesty about who she is or where she comes from, at least The Strokes didn't pretend they didn't come from that.

Wow, cool guy. Keeps himself in good company.

Julia is actually a pretty talented songwriter.
