There are ups and downs in every band's career but the latter ones are way harder when your start was a furious one. And it looks like many groups from the glorious 00s indie movement are in an ongoing creative crisis.
'I Don't Want To Be A Puppet The Ghost Of My Own Self Still Controls': Casablancas completes a reincarnation on his new band's second outing.
The group’s seminal debut of 2001 not only marked one of the first hypes of the Internet era, but also initiated a wave-like revival of garage rock, surging up the post-millenial indie movement that still reverberates to this day.
