      I liked your comment although I wish to add that his voice certainly is inspired by Lou's but, no disrespect, it is immensely richer (and therefore better). ;)

      I agree whole heartedly. Julian was heavily influenced by The Velvet Underground. Also, The Doors. As it was reported back in like 2001. The Strokes is the best band in the history of the world. :)

    When the Strokes first came out I was a little slow in getting into them, Room on fire was the first l.p I got, which I loved.
    I saw an interview with Jules saying he saw Lou in a restaurant once but was too shy to say hello.
    (This was early in the Strokes career I think.)
    Well Lou's influence is obvious to hear, but Jules is absolutely amazing in his own right.
    Saw the Voidz twice this year and just had the best time.
    Anyway, loved this version and i'm pretty sure Lou would love Jules work if he wasn't aware of it in his life.
    Two of the great New York poets for sure.
    Viva LR & JC!
