This week we do our very first artist spotlight... The Strokes! The New York City band has been quintessential to the rise in popularity of the indie rock genre, influencing bands such as The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, and Franz Ferdinand, among others. In true Educate Your Earbuds fashion, we dive into the fast facts about the band and how they came to be. From their meteoric rise, to some surprisingly low album sales, and their comeback album The New Abnormal, we talk about it all. Later in the episode, we dive into the Spotify streaming data for each individual Strokes album and go through our favorite picks from each record.
