"Angles" sees The Strokes going for a new sound. They don't really know what sound to go for, though, so they try to experiment. The base sound, however, is their old sound combined with bucketloads of new wave inspiration. While the results are a bit disjointed, we still got a great record here! The production is as raw as ever, the instrumentation is fantastic, Julian's vocals are great and "Angles" contains a lot of their greatest songs! Definitely an underrated record from them.
