### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Refreshing and fun but with plenty of depth
  

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2009*

This album still holds a bit of Strokes appeal but it takes it to a whole new level. I really feel as though I'm listening to something completely original. This is the Strokes re-imagined. I find that it truly possesses the creativity and originality people were looking for in Strokes music after "Is This It". The beats are exciting and almost always engaging, the lyrics are thoughtful, and Casablancas' vocals are beautiful and varied. I do think the album sags a little in the center when it slows down, but songs like "4 Chords of the Apocalypse" and "Ludlow St." are still worth listening to. At least the vocals do not drone forever like in "Ask Me Anything" (First Impressions of Earth). In that album I felt Casablancas was almost holding back his band with his (sometimes) painfully boring vocals. This album proves Casablancas is the true artistic genius behind the Strokes, and he still has plenty of creativity left to share.

    Bravo, brave Julian!
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2010*

"Phrazes for the Young" is a musically and emotionally brave album. Its lyrics discard the easy poses of nihilism and boredom for the hard work of communicating something: the wisdom gained by an individual (Casablancas, that is) who's experienced every trial, travail, and triumph of a life in which he's been hailed the next-big-thing and (prematurely, obviously) declared a has-been. Musically, Casablancas has somehow built cathartic, transcendent, timeless, and endlessly engaging songs around '80s-style synth riffs that would have verged on sounding cheesy even in their heyday. I agree with other reviewers that the two country/bluesy ballads in the album's middle are not "Phrazes" strongest tracks--but careful listening reveals their depths...as well as pleasant evocations of Brian Eno and Lou Reed exploring similarly unfamiliar terrain. Buy this album. Live with it and learn with it. You'll love it.

    I am in music heaven
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2020*

If I could give it 10 stars I would. In my opinion Julian's best music even better than the Strokes. Wish he would write more songs like this. I can listen to this over and over again and I do especially when I feel stressed. I wish he had put Little Girl on this CD.
