MTV HIVE: http://ppt.cc/F5YS 好巧不巧刚好看到mtv写了这篇911专栏 American indie rock was in dire need of new energy in the early ’00s. It got a massive jolt thanks to the Strokes, who made New York's music scene the epicenter of cool for the first time in twenty years. By September, when the band returned from yet another round of massive U.K. shows, anticipation for their debut full-length, Is This It, had reached a fever pitch. The album had been scheduled for release on September 25th, but then the 9/11 attacks happened, and suddenly it didn’t seem like such a good idea for the city’s most beloved young band to release a tune with the lyric, “NYC cops, they ain’t too smart.” The band decided to remove the song “NYC Cops” from the LP (their press statement said they stood by the song, but didn’t like the timing), replacing it with the considerably less ass-kicking track “When It Started,” and delaying the album’s release until early October. A decade hence, “NYC Cops” remains one of the Strokes’ most revered songs and a staple of their live set.
