The American rock band’s critically acclaimed debut studio album. Building on their 2001 EP ‘The Modern Age’, the band members moulded compositions largely through live takes during recording sessions, while songwriter and lead singer Julian Casablancas continued to detail the lives and relationships of urban youth. Three singles were released from the album: ‘Hard to Explain’/’New York City Cops’, ‘Last Nite’, and ‘Someday’. Now available on red vinyl. And audiences alike were blown away by the gargantuan success of the 2001 debut-album of this New York quintet, and we’re still recovering from the aftershock ten+ years later.
