    Pink Ocean locks into an appealing groove; Think Before You Drink is tuneful enough, if an abomination lyrically. But even the biggest Strokes devotee will find precious little worth hearing here.

    Julian just saved rock music again (with due credit to the rest of the Voidz who are all brilliant musicians in their own right). Virtue is anJulian just saved rock music again (with due credit to the rest of the Voidz who are all brilliant musicians in their own right). Virtue is an instant classic bursting with diverse, new ideas that display all the creativity Julian's been trying record since First Impressions of Earth perfectly blended with the gorgeous melodies and brilliant solos that characterize his more popular work. Every song seems to exist in several genres at once or outside traditional genre entirely (other than the fact that of course they're using rock instruments). 15 songs with no filler! Though I have a few least favorites like One of the Ones you'll find others who consider it their favorite, and there are no obvious throwaways. The album gets better with every listen and each song is so different you can just listen on repeat without it ever feeling stale. I feel sorry for the idiotic critics who gave this mediocre reviews, they'll be kicking themselves for discarding music this important (reminds me of when Pitchfork gave Discovery a 6.4).

To be able to master so many different sounds in one able and to hit the nail on the head for most of them is a true sign of a great album. It doesn't need to be consistent in its sound when all the songs are consistently good. Full Review »
