I've been listening to this band for a while now.. And they certainly do rock. I saw them live 3 times already! I'm getting a little to fanatical about them. My avatar happens to be of their first single.
Anyways, the import version (Non-US rather) does include NYC Cops. They replaced that song with "When it Started" on the US version. I happen to like this song more.
Here are a little tidbits. Though they are an "indie" band, I think they could have made cleaner recordings if they wanted to. The lead singer, Julian Casablancas, is the son of John (I think that is his name) Casablancas the founder of Elite modeling. Julian went to Swiss boarding school for pete's sake. He met one of the members at that school, one in a school in France, and the rest at a prep school in Manhattan. A bunch of rich kids who wanted to be in a rock band! The video was also directed by Roman Coppola, son of you know who. There was a huge bidding war for them, and RCA won. Money was probably not a problem.
It's all intentional, I think..
Beavis: They played in San Diego back in early August. Then they came back to California in October, so I'm not sure when they'll be back again.
The information I'm providing is more or less correct. Wow, I'm pathetic.
