Dude

we really gonna go out here with the "he acted like a jerk on purpose" excuse? you realize that doesn't make him look better, right? you can admit your lord and savior had one bad interview, it'll be ok.

@@gotgunpowder 😂 I’m not defending him that’s the character he plays. He acts normal before the interview and then puts on the act. I’m a huge Strokes fan, this really is one of the most engaged interviews.

@@gotgunpowderhe's a journo, they're all bellends

@@gotgunpowderthe strokes clearly stated in the video that they were bs'ing in other interviews, nardwaur threw some things for them to jab at and show their authentic thoughts towards dumb questions, press. nardwaur was being a dick yes, but they got annoyed of being toyed with and began actually answering questions, something they wouldn't have done if they were greeted with a sugar coating interviewer

jackie k. Yeah

Julian is definitely annoyed. Nick seems to be enjoying the whole thing

Mauro Fernandez yep exactly

I’m annoyed at how nardwar is annoying the crap out of my favorite band and they are still trying to be respectful of him

Zeke Dagget nardwuar wasnt rlly being annoying honestly. theyre look obviously tired and this was done at a time when they were blowing up being bombarded by all the stardom. nardwuar was just staying to his character. hes always been respectful probably hoping he can get some more comfortability from julian.

or that he's just annoying as fuck

Fe Mon Hahaha I’m fucking dying

we still love the strokes

yeah the strokes are mature af love my boys

“Your hand feels great like that” oh my god i would simply evaporate if he grabbed my hands in his like that with the stare

😂

Dude I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that

Me to exactly this was weird

12:13 rn

12:41

when i looked at my clock it was exactly 12:50AM lmaooo it freaked me out

12:09

Devils!!!

is your bfs dads name james corden?

Lmao

More please

Dude I fcking wish I could hear more bc wtf 😂😂

this is my favorite Nard interview ever! Loved these guys in high school

he is

after Kurt Cobain

look into his eyes at 0:45

Bruh, these are the two most myopic, self-important people on the planet! I hate pranks more than the average dude, so fuck Naudwar-but even I couldn’t help but wanna troll ‘em. Precisely because some people out there think this dude is “the coolest person on the planet.” 😂

+emily lee i imagine him talking like that, holding hands and looking in the eyes to his wife and im crying :D

Lol

esme ! You definitely don't know Narduwar

I think the interviewer went into character and let them know before. Hence why Julian says that “you’re a nice guy and we were talking so normally before”

The fact that they don't care is what makes them so cool in my mind

I hear ya, some people ca find him annoying. I for one love the geeky charm lol

It's called passive aggressive on Miss Julia May part

sonic youth worse

Ogreaggressive

+Manfred Ignacio Pérez Alemán he's not "trying to diss" a minor band you have to be kidding me, what kind of revisionist fan bullshit is that. Narduwar gives them props for everything, knew they were getting extremely popular and was throwing out quotes from zines. He just wants them to open up and say something he hasn't already heard before. When you waver about and don't say anything particularly specific, someone like Nardwuar will aggressively coax you. Eventually he got some little interesting tidbits we wouldn't know about now if it weren't for Nardwuar squeezing it out of them

+Cat Nardwuar is undeniably being a prick in this one. What the fuck was up with that body guard comment to Julian? That kind of shit is totally unnecessary and downright crass.

Drake Holliday Well yeah he was being really aggressive but to go as far as to say he was trying to "diss the band" is idiotic. Julian sort of fell for the shtick then laughed to himself realizing Nardwuar was trying to get under their skin. I mean really if you listen to Julian he's trying to be so anti industry that he just sounds snarky and over protective. He gets embarrassed that the band was doing well off a single and he didn't want to say the street date for when the album drops for fucks sake. I'd love to see Nard interview the voidz it would probably be more laidback than this

yes i get your point. still my whole argument is that the whole thing backed fire him because they are the strokes and that album was terrific indeed. Casablancas knew how good it was and he warned him to wait for the album before all that judgemental thinking to take place.

nardwuar is not that stupid. He was playing the character here to give them the chance to show who they really are. Like quoting every bullshit magazine article and giving them a chance to reply. This dude is great.

I'm 4 years late, but it might be cuz Nick was calling him out and not just going along with all of Nardwuar's dumb questions, so he gravitated more towards the person who was actually answering the questions.

@@awerawer0708 It seems like it. Julian seemed more patient with his questions.

I think he's a good sport. But the ''You asked me what he fucking said dude'' was hilarious

Nardwaur is aware the early Strokes aren’t outgoing he makes sure they talk lol

José Pedro Milanez yeaaa

hiiiiiii i love the strokes :D

yep!

then you probably haven't seen black keys' pitchfork interview. that's one fucking hilarious interview man

oh shit that's true, they were so stoned haha then this is the second funniest fucking in the history of interviews!

haha yeah man, it's so fucking funny.

Lol yeah

The Marlboro shirt wasn't as cool

it was so painful to watch tbh

Ha to be fair, he did what he had to do to get Julian to talk. Nick was down but Julian is the front man. Julian would have sat there and not said anything if it was up to him.

Why
