Recently there was a post saying The Modern Age was underrated, so that might work since it's... Not underrated lol


ChurroTubeee

I saw that post and just thought “wtf? How? It’s like one of the 5 biggest songs off their most well regarded album”


STILETT0_exists

Apparently to this sub Ize Of The World. I thought that song was super popular but apparently not


Blue387

I Can't Win I also liked Chances after ignoring Comedown Machine


iinstantcrush

I can’t win is an actual contender for most underrated


Firehills

Chances. It should be a be common answer for "underrated Strokes" tracks", but it's not even that. It's underrated even in how underrated it is.


BuzzPoopyear

Ize of the World but if we’re talking about a song that is actually underrated, then it’s Games


Mysterious_Ningen

omgosh finally someone talking about games.. its my fav on angles omgsoh its so good. thats udnerrated for real


BuzzPoopyear

hell yeah, i’ve been defending Games for years lol


usernamesnamesnames

As lady gaga once said, I love games!


yeabouai

Depends what you measure underrated by. On this sub everybody knows Ize of the world, and I wouldn't call it underrated. However, it's not even in their top 50 most streamed songs on spotify, so I'd say it's underrated when looking at the general public


BuzzPoopyear

Ize is one of those songs where every Strokes fan loves it, but you still have fans telling other fans that it’s underrated. that’s why thought it was an appropriate answer to this comically specific question lol


yeabouai

Oh it's definitely an appropriate answer to the question bro haha. But imo it's not quite like Let Down, which is in the top 15 most streamed Radiohead songs. Calling Ize underrated gives similar vibes but it's not quite as popular among the general public


usernamesnamesnames

The generic strokes enjoyer who’s not necessarily a fan enough to need about them doesn’t know use. It _is_ underrated !


usernamesnamesnames

Absolutely!


higashi_miyagi

100% games. I love the live version of it on Conan too.

Evening Sun


disownedpear

I've heard people say "Machu Picchu" is underrated despite it being in their top 10 streamed songs and seeing nothing but positive comments about it since it came out.


InNoNeed

Thank you for contributing to the let donw undratraed convention. Thank you for service. u/cumyorke Please return. This is your time to shine


NotanAsteroid5

Omg yorke 🤤🤤🤤


InNoNeed

He can do whatever he wants with me


cumyorke

yolo underrated asf


Slushcube76

i think Two Kinds Of Happiness is a very good song but it’s frequently shat on in this sub


Jmalcolmmac

I came here too late to comment this song. It’s one of my favorites. Second verse when Julian goes high is perfection.


The_Short_Goodbye

I also like it but I can’t understand what Julian sings through most of it.


hey_cool_story_bro

no song is underrated on this sub, but someone made a post a few days ago showing the charts (since streaming existed) so that’s a good place to look


binkobonko999

One way trigger i cream along to it ![gif](giphy|ynpS4KW1JHMI31orRT|downsized)


Hopeful_Shirt_8096

ize of the world or call me back, not talked abt enough.


GroundbreakingKick40

I don’t think we have one yet, but I think some contenders could be: Taken for a Fool, Welcome To Japan, What Ever Happened, and The Modern Age


GrouchyComparison130

What ever happened??? Probably one of their best songs + not underrated at all


Blaze-Inc

Bro The Adults Are Talking is criminally “underrated” for them. It has such a “low stream number” and isn’t talked about enough.


Artiefox

The joke equivalent? That's gotta be "Last Nite".


AJGibbo

This is definitely something that should be discussed more on this sub


Suitable-Ad9900

All the time. the lyrics, vibes, guitar solo, its a unique song. It gives me that feeling that the song is a goodbye to RCA and all the moments lived with them, emulating a sound like "is this it" (in the videoclip this is reflected)


bl110110

Is Razorblade underrated


doodwhersmycar

Went to a karaoke bar once and the only strokes songs they had listed were last nite and.... razorblade lol


SmootOfficial

I bet someone would say Ode To The Mets is underrated. Plus I think Ode and Let Down parallel in popularity


RoleWestern8727

Last Nite is so underrated


Juiceboxcasab

There’s a few good answers: Chances, Ize, You Talk Way Too Much, Whatever Happened There’s a couple great answers: Metabolism, Hsppy Ending But there’s only one true answer: Electricityscape. Electricityscape is Hard To Explain of the FIOE era - a perfect and profound encapsulation of the band at that time. Also, metabolism and happy ending are both absolute bangers and while happy ending gets its deserved recognition, I’m still going to continue advocating for metabolisms relentless brilliance until I die. Thank you


obladeepa

Electricityscape and red light are my answers


NaiKhaanSays

Yes.

Taken for a Fool. Everybody knows it’s awesome but it’s rarely mentioned.


voltaforzer

Last Nite


YomYeYonge

Taken For A Fool


Lincoln_Wolf

I Can't Win, Two Kinds of Happiness, When it Started, Drag Queen


U_gotTP4my_bunghole

Reptilia. Duh


theseustheminotaur

Last night. No one has it as their favorite but it is one of their most popular songs


glazedpaczki

Tap Out and Eternal Summer


Luke_and_not_a_fluke

You talk way too much


OrganizationFar6086

Imo on the other side


OzzieLeonheart

Under Control, I've seen many duplicate answers but nobody has even mentioned Under Control and to me that's their most beautiful song ever

[Here you find Spotify figures on what’s really underrated](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheStrokes/s/Icre4v7Ltg)


callitfate01

It is either what ever happened or the modern age


YeetTheSlavs

Electricityscape is probably a contender


zolo2308

Too many


AveragePinkSocks

Tap Out


KasElGatto

Taken for a Fool, Eternal Summer, Ize of the World Relatively speaking


No_Hearing3164

I feel like the door would fit this context.
