S3E4 - US Noughties Indie Invasion: The Strokes (Overrated) & The Hold Steady (Underrated) - with Adam Larter

Joined by comedian Adam Larter, we're discussing two very different bands who came up in New York at the turn of the millennium. Adam thinks The Strokes have little substance beyond becoming the template for hipsterdom, but can he convince fans Fran and Babs otherwise? 

Adam picked The Hold Steady as his underrated act because of the great lyrics and the "heart and soul" they pour into their songs - but given their songs are quite melodic, Babs is sceptical...will she be won over by their beautiful storytelling?

Adam is on Twitter @lartymcparty and he is part of Weirdos Comedy - who you should really check out live if you can.
