As you may know already, “Juicebox”, one of the songs off of the new Strokes album, has already been leaked on the internet. Early listeners have been less than enthusiastic upon their initial listening.
I have to say, upon my first listening I was…er…taken aback by the Batman theme song music that served as the first 10 seconds of the song. However I do like the part where Julian screams “Why won’t you come over here?”
Thoughts?
