I knew they were cool.Â
They also changed some of the lyrics of the song (Oblivius):
What side you standing on?
And we take
What we want from them
And then say
“What do you want from me?”
The earlier parts of the song had visuals of other moments of US foreign intervention, like coups in Latin America. I think it’s safe to say they probably won’t be invited back to Coachella lol
Nothing on Hamas crimes on October 7 2023?
Context into his Dad. This is a ‘nepo baby’ fighting against the depraved and disgusting machine that brought him into this world

And before that part, the visuals also showed presidents of the global south whose governments were overthrown with the CIA’s complicity, MLK Jr. and images of slavery and segregation. It was really well done.
Dude their entire set was incredible!
The strokes / Casablancas especially has always been outspoken about their political beliefs, but this is still shocking to see on a stage as big as Coachella where all the biggest acts are sanitized to an extreme degree
W strokes
