Easily in my top 3 favourite albums of all time. Barely Legal one of the best tracks. Whole album such a vibe

Aah, The Strokes are my boys! <3 Great job!

Would you check out my tracks? I'd love your feedback! You have amazing energy and it would mean a lot!

gives me a Where Is My Mind" by the pixies vibe

I recorded all of The Strokes' album 'Is this It' in one take. Not perfect obviously, and I left a bunch of mistakes in, but that's fine. I think it definitely turned out better than dookie though. 

Drums were tracked and mixed mono the same way I did one the song 'Is This It' a few weeks ago (kick, snare top, snare bottom, one overhead, and a room mic). Bass just straight in with a DI and then through a waves plugin amp. 

Guitars were done through a DI with waves plugin amps as well, but also tracked through Ian's crate, mic'd with a 57. (Thanks to Ian for also being my tab page turner while recording guitars)

The vocal track was done with my shitty Sony F96 and went through different waves plugin amps for different songs.

The entire album was mixed on board. Only kick, snare, and vocal tracks used minimal compression, and all tracks used on board EQ.

Here's the breakdown of the songs:

0:00 Is This It
2:34 Modern Age
6:08 Soma
8:44 Barely Legal
12:40 Someday
15:45 Alone, Together
19:00 Last Nite
22:16 Hard To Explain
26:04 New York City Cops
29:43 Trying Your Luck
33:11 Take It Or Leave It
