Try not to give advice you can't follow (Left & Right in the Dark)
Art is the image of life, it's purpose simply to enhance it (11th Dimension)
Being nice is most important when others are not (4 Chords of the Apocalypse)
Drunkenness is cowardice, sobriety is loneliness (Ludlow St)
People don't want to be greedy, they want to be happy but they're often too greedy to notice (River of Brakelights)
Talk about those absent as if they were listening in (Glass)
Unlocking life's mysteries is the responsibility of dissatisfied people (Tourist)
These are the Phrazes for the Young according to Julian Casablancas' debut solo album. I've been listening to this a bit today and have decided that I like it. The album is pretty fun and completely unexpected. My favourite line - 'Yes I know I'm going to Hell in a leather jacket' from Out of the Blue. My favourite track (at the moment) is Left & Right in the Dark.
If you've been craving something new from The Strokes, then this might just tide you over until the boys (hopefully) release their 4th album. (However, do NOT listen to this album thinking/hoping it will sound like The Strokes. It doesn't...there's a bit more CASIO demo music involved in Julian's work.)
