Do You Believe the Hype?

Reported by simple

Well chances are, you have heard of The Strokes. Whether they are worth all the hype or not, I wil let you decide. This is crazy though, according to NME.com, the New York music phenomenon has already spawned a tribute band, although The Strokes' album has only been on the store shelves for a month. The tribute band goes by the moniker The Diff'rent Strokes. NME claims that the band covers hits from The Strokes' album, Is This It, using a casio-style keyboard to create musical versions. The tribute band has even grabbed themselves a record deal through the U.K.'s Guided Missile label.
