They may not be able to get away with milking this formula for many more albums, but for now, Room on Fire's eleven songs find them drowsily getting away with what they do best.

Some may gripe that it's never as good as the first time, but Room on Fire shows that even after all that happened to the Strokes, they can still surprise.

The pitchfork review hardly says anything about this actual album. It only compares it to Is This It. So shame on them because there’s a lot to say about this album. However I do think their score of 8.0 is fair and I would pick the same.
