Editorial Reviews
The Strokes bring you their highly anticipated fourth album, ANGLES, via RCA Records featuring the first single, "Under Cover of Darkness." ANGLES is the bands first new r elease since 2006s FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF EARTH and marks the ambition of that album with the immediacy of the bands earlier albums IS THIS IT (2001) and ROOM ON FIRE (2003).

Con: It's The Strokes.
Anyway, back to the Strokes. Bands are always critical of their own stuff and I'm not surprised if some members of the Strokes said they aren't happy with how the album turned out. However, I'm pretty sure the Strokes would have completely scrapped this album if they were actually THAT unhappy with it. The Strokes don't seem like a band that would half-ass their work and even if they are insecure about the album, it doesn't mean that it isn't a great album.
Some of the tracks on this album will be some of my favorites Strokes songs period. For example, Machu Picchu has this 80s reggae mix feel which is very unique and very cool and a perfect way to start the album. Under cover of darkness is also a great track and it's not surprising that they chose this as their first single.
I realize this not really the best review as it's not that in depth but what spurred me to write this review is that it is IMPERATIVE that you give this album a lot of listens. Not just a few listens but a PLETHORA of listens. If you are a hardcore Strokes fan you will start to enjoy this album more and more without realizing it and songs that you might have been "meh" about could quite possibly be tracks that you put on repeat.
LET THE ALBUM GROW ON YOU!! You won't regret it and disregard the low review on here. Some people can't handle a band changing and I feel bad for these people. Open up your minds and if you are that bummed that a band has changed their direction a little bit then just continue listening to their old stuff. The Strokes have maintained their trademark stroke-ish sound anyway...Hope you all give this album a chance if you consider yourself strokes fans!
1.Machu Picchu) an incredible 80's sounding song. great vocal. vintage (awesome) guitar. very fun. (8/10)
2.Under Cover Of Darkness) the showcase track. awesome. great guitar. the first single and best song for a reason. (9/10)
3.Two Kinds Of Happiness) talk about 1980's. this is a flat out great song. feels like an old LP from a trunk you found in steven adlers garage pre 'appetite'...just great (9/10)
4.You're So Right) not so great. seems like a RADIOHEAD wannabe track. its not a bad song, just one that does NOT fit with the album. different circumstances (7/10) on this album (5/10)
5.Taken For A Fool) great song. certainly single worthy. fun lyrics. nice sound. (8/10)
6.Games) good song. nothing great. musically ordinary yet still interesting. (7/10)
7.Call Me Back) good song. nothing spectacular. very low key. nice listen. not going to jump out at you. a nice piece in the context of the entire album. (6/10)
8.Gratisfaction) arguably the best track on the album. just awesome. it sounds like a QUEEN song in all the good ways. just an amazing track. (10/10)
9.Metabolism)good song. maybe the most musically complex. i like the strokes but it does seem like they are trying to be MUSE on this one. (7/10)
10.Life Is Simple In The Moonlight) the album is ended brilliantly. this is a great song. very good stuff and a great melody. (9/10)
ps. If you haven't already, check out their solo projects. Albert's band, Jules solo work, fab's little joy and Nikolai's Nickel Eye all came out with stellar albums in the last 5 years. Enjoy!

The etched matrix number ‘314558903-1-A’, shows up as Jay Z on discogs too.
Side B is correct, with The Strokes - Angles, however it is a bad press, skips on last track.
(I have a good turntable from Pro-Ject, none of my other record skips, there is clearly a problem with this specific pressing)
