From Pitchfork‘s fantastic piece on The Strokes comes this excerpt…
Casablancas also expresses some reservations about Angles, even if he’s not as quick as Valensi to find the silver lining. Asked if he likes the finished album, he takes a long pause. “I mean… yes… It’s a tough question because I think the whole point was that I was going to let things go so there’s a bunch of stuff [on the record] I wouldn’t have done.”
From most of what has been published about Julian, I feel confident in saying he doesn’t like this record. He’s a perfectionist and, when there are things he doesn’t like on songs he produces, an answer like that which he gave to Pitchfork makes sense.
