anybody like that.

160
00:13:14,075 --> 00:13:17,999
Karen played me songs
that she had written.
161
00:13:19,042 --> 00:13:22,900
I was just completely
\h\h\h\h\hblown away.

One night, Karen said,
166
00:13:44,966 --> 00:13:48,966
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h"Trust me.
We should start a rock band."
167

00:14:01,735 --> 00:14:03,240

We’ve, um...
171
00:14:06,570 --> 00:14:09,075
-Do you wanna continue?
\h\h\h\h-
172
00:14:09,075 --> 00:14:11,042
In one night,
we wrote six songs.
173
00:14:11,042 --> 00:14:14,570
We were bragging about
\hhow amazing we were
\h\h\h\hto our friend
174
00:14:14,570 --> 00:14:17,075
who was The White Stripes
\h\h\h\h\h\hbooking agent.
175
00:14:17,075 --> 00:14:21,735
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hHe called our bluff
and offered us the opening slot
176
00:14:21,735 --> 00:14:25,537
for The White Stripes show
\h\hin the Mercury Lounge.
177
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,570
Karen was really insistent
178
00:14:27,570 --> 00:14:31,570
that we get her friend
\hBrian to play drums.
179
00:14:34,042 --> 00:14:35,537
I was really nervous,
180
00:14:35,537 --> 00:14:37,702
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hand I had
four margaritas lined up.
181
00:14:37,702 --> 00:14:40,438
\h\h\h
Knocking one back
\hafter the other.
182
00:15:23,372 --> 00:15:26,306
Something was
\hcompletely unleashed,
183
00:15:27,141 --> 00:15:28,669
I was shocked.
184
00:15:34,372 --> 00:15:38,603
I grew up in New Jersey,
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hvery shy,
185
00:15:38,603 --> 00:15:40,504
half Korean, half white.
186
00:15:40,504 --> 00:15:42,801
\h\h\h\hAnd when you’re a halfie,
you don’t feel like the whites,
187
00:15:42,801 --> 00:15:45,801
\hyou don’t fit in
with the Koreans.
\h\h\h
188
00:15:46,306 --> 00:15:49,636
\h\h\h\hI was just used
to being on the outside.
189
00:15:51,306 --> 00:15:55,273
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBut on stage,
I was free of that feeling.
190
00:15:55,471 --> 00:16:01,273
Once I’d had tasted that,
\h\h\h\h\h\hI just wanted
\hto lose myself in that.
191
00:16:04,339 --> 00:16:07,372
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYou guys
should get a manager, you know.
\h\hDo you guys have a manager?
192
00:16:07,372 --> 00:16:09,372

you should point the camera--
\h\h\h\h\hIt’s Ryan Gentles.

\h\hThe first time
I saw The Strokes,

196
00:16:21,999 --> 00:16:24,372

\h\h\h\h\h\hin New York City.
198

\h\h\h\hwe were hearing about
what was going on in Brooklyn
539
00:47:07,075 --> 00:47:09,438
and we were in Manhattan.
540
00:47:09,603 --> 00:47:13,306
I was never really
part of any scene.
541
00:47:13,306 --> 00:47:16,306
I’d been recording bands
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hfor years.
542
00:47:16,306 --> 00:47:20,273
\h\h\h\hI had engineered some
perfectly engineered records,

00:47:20,471 --> 00:47:23,537
\h\h\h\h\h\hbut people
didn’t really hire me.

00:47:33,042 --> 00:47:34,405

\h\h\hto make a record.

00:48:00,768 --> 00:48:03,669
And I’m super

552
00:48:05,537 --> 00:48:12,603
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTIM GOLDSWORTH:
\h\h\hJames had been in a few
second-tier Indie Rock bands.
553
00:48:13,339 --> 00:48:14,141
He lived in the office.
554
00:48:14,141 --> 00:48:19,042
He had a small stereo system
and an inflatable mattress.
555
00:48:19,042 --> 00:48:22,636
That decade had defeated him.
556
00:48:24,141 --> 00:48:25,339
The first thing
\h\h\h\h\hI wanted to do
557

\h\hwas make a record

559
00:48:36,636 --> 00:48:40,141
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hCan were people

562
00:48:45,108 --> 00:48:49,042
\h\h\h\h\htraveled to New York,
seized The Velvet Underground,
563
00:48:49,042 --> 00:48:49,636
blew his mind,
564
00:48:49,636 --> 00:48:54,174
went back and formed a band
with the best free jazz drummer
in Europe.
565
00:48:54,174 --> 00:48:55,801
\h\h\h\h\h\hThey live
in a weird old castle.
566
00:48:55,801 --> 00:48:58,174
They played together
\height hours a day.
567
00:48:59,768 --> 00:49:03,735
\h\h\h\hYou’re gonna sit there
and sample your way into Can?
568
00:49:03,735 --> 00:49:07,108
\h\hAt this point,
I’m going insane.
569
00:49:07,108 --> 00:49:09,504
\hBut the truth is,
without David Holmes
570
00:49:09,504 --> 00:49:14,273

\hhappens, none of it.
\h\h\h\h\hNone of it.

00:49:20,669 --> 00:49:23,504
\h\hAre you conscious of being

573
00:49:23,504 --> 00:49:26,702
\h\h\hWell, everyone says
that there’s the scenes,
\hso that’s kind of cool,
574
00:49:26,702 --> 00:49:33,405

\h\hPAUL: Out of the blue,
we got given a record deal.
576
00:49:37,834 --> 00:49:39,405
I just couldn’t believe it.
577
00:49:39,405 --> 00:49:41,768
This was actually happening.
578
00:49:42,207 --> 00:49:44,405
Finally making a record.
579
00:49:46,372 --> 00:49:50,174
The only studio
\h\h\hwe could afford
\h\h\hwas in the attic
580
00:49:50,174 --> 00:49:53,372
of someone’s house
\hin Connecticut.
581
00:49:54,405 --> 00:49:58,867
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hIt really was great
\h\h\h\h\h\hto get out of the city
and get away from distractions.
582
00:49:58,867 --> 00:50:03,504
Be it alcohol or cocaine
\hor girls, or whatever
583
00:50:03,504 --> 00:50:06,405
and just focus on the music.
584
00:50:08,537 --> 00:50:12,108
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hBut social life
was very important to Carlos.
585
00:50:12,108 --> 00:50:14,240
He didn’t wanna miss out.
586
00:50:14,240 --> 00:50:16,504
\h\h\h\h\hWhich is why
I’m very, very obsessed
587
00:50:16,504 --> 00:50:19,273
\hwith the movie
Leaving Las Vegas.
588
00:50:19,273 --> 00:50:23,405
\h\h\h\h\h\hBecause to me,
Nicholas Cage in that movie
589
00:50:23,405 --> 00:50:25,273
almost embodies me.
590
00:50:25,273 --> 00:50:26,570
\h\h\h\hCARLOS:
\hI wanted to be
in New York City
591
00:50:26,570 --> 00:50:28,537
where, like, everything
\h\h\h\h\hwas happening.
592
00:50:28,537 --> 00:50:30,339

00:50:30,339 --> 00:50:32,867

Don’t you have...
594
00:50:34,339 --> 00:50:36,570
\h\hPAUL: There was a lot
of tension in the studio.
595
00:50:36,570 --> 00:50:39,405
We couldn’t have
\h\h\h\h\h\ha conversation
\hfor more than 10 minutes
596
00:50:39,405 --> 00:50:42,240
without telling each other
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hto fuck off.
597
00:50:42,240 --> 00:50:45,339
\h\h\hPAUL: The fact that
this was a collaboration,
\h\hI really didn’t care.
598
00:50:45,339 --> 00:50:51,108
\h\hThe most important thing
was the song writing dynamic
\h\h\hbetween me and Daniel.
599
00:50:51,372 --> 00:50:55,768
The best moment
\h\h\h\hreally were when
\h\hwe just didn’t talk.
600
00:51:01,174 --> 00:51:07,438
\h\hPAUL: And when Carlos played,
it just negated anything else.
601
00:51:23,801 --> 00:51:27,273
\h\h\hCARLOS: I remember being
in the studio the last morning
602
00:51:27,273 --> 00:51:29,438
listening to what we had done.
603
00:51:29,834 --> 00:51:30,339
Wow.
604
00:51:30,339 --> 00:51:32,768
I just couldn’t believe
\h\h\h\hhow good it was.
605
00:51:35,438 --> 00:51:38,636
\hPAUL: Driving home from

After watching what Holmes
\h\h\hcould wind up doing,
648
00:58:04,867 --> 00:58:06,108
it just seemed obvious to us.
649
00:58:06,108 --> 00:58:08,933
What if we did something
\h\h\h\h\h\hof our own?
650

\h\h\hJAMES: But if we were going

we really needed to find a band.
653
00:58:23,273 --> 00:58:25,735
A band that we believed in.
654
00:58:26,735 --> 00:58:28,900
\h\h\h\h\hWOMAN: So,

\hVITO ROCCOFORTE: The band

659
00:58:39,966 --> 00:58:42,075
We lived in this suburb
\h\h\h\h\hof San Diego,
660
00:58:42,075 --> 00:58:45,042
where there’s nothing
\h\hgoing on.
661
00:58:46,141 --> 00:58:48,867
\h\hWe just decided

to get out to New York.

903
01:18:36,603 --> 01:18:38,999
We felt invincible.
904
01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:46,603
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLUKE:
\h\h\hWe had just finished Echoes,
this album that we really loved.
905
01:18:46,603 --> 01:18:52,108
\h\h\hAnd then compound that
\h\hwith the music industry
feeding frenzy in New York,
906
01:18:52,108 --> 01:18:53,999
\h\hand it was just
this perfect timing.
907
01:18:53,999 --> 01:18:57,339
\h\hBut in the beginning,
DFA was more about concept
908
01:18:57,339 --> 01:19:00,174
\h\hthan an actual
functioning label.
909
01:19:00,174 --> 01:19:04,669
\h\h\hMAN: DFA spent a year
trying to find a distributor
910
01:19:04,669 --> 01:19:07,174
and failed to do so.
911
01:19:07,174 --> 01:19:09,405
The clock was ticking.
912
01:19:09,471 --> 01:19:13,174
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hJAMES:
I wish we had just put
\hfucking Echoes out.
913
01:19:13,174 --> 01:19:15,207
That was a fucking mistake.
914
01:19:15,339 --> 01:19:16,405
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hThe songs
that are on the record,
915
01:19:16,405 --> 01:19:19,999
we’ve been playing them
\h\hout for like a year
\h\hand a half, like...
916
01:19:19,999 --> 01:19:21,504
So, it’s just like...
917
01:19:21,504 --> 01:19:24,999
\h\h\h\h\h\hIt’s just time
for it to come out, like...
918
01:19:26,669 --> 01:19:31,999
I was more scared
\h\h\hthan I’d ever been
\h\h\hin my entire life.
919
01:19:32,306 --> 01:19:35,966
It’s gonna fucking disappear,
\h\h\h\h\hit’s gonna be over.
920
01:19:35,999 --> 01:19:41,141
I know they had to,
\h\h\h\hbut when they left,
\h\h\h\h\h\hthe crushed me.
921
01:19:41,999 --> 01:19:43,306
I cried.
922
01:19:43,900 --> 01:19:45,372
I just cried.
923
01:19:45,669 --> 01:19:47,999
We were Rapture Records.
924
01:19:48,207 --> 01:19:49,900
That’s what DFA was.
925
01:19:50,141 --> 01:19:51,504
But they left.
926
01:19:52,504 --> 01:19:55,966
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLUKE:
We didn’t want to leave DFA.
927
01:19:56,174 --> 01:19:59,999
\hThose were, like,
our closest friends.
928
01:20:00,174 --> 01:20:03,075
\h\h\h\hBut we needed
to get our record out.
929
01:20:12,537 --> 01:20:15,966
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hPAUL:
We hit 40,000 records sold.
930
01:20:15,999 --> 01:20:19,240
Our record company
was, like, "Whoa!"
931
01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:23,504
We had this incredible
\h\h\h\h\h\h\henergy between us,
\h\h\h\h\h\hthis kinetic energy.
932
01:20:23,504 --> 01:20:27,075
\hPAUL: We nailed
the second record
\h\hstraightaway.
933
01:20:27,075 --> 01:20:30,636
This is the record
that we’ve been waiting for.
934
01:20:38,504 --> 01:20:41,636
\h\hThree months before
\h\h\h\h\hrelease date,
we were out at some bar.
935
01:20:41,636 --> 01:20:48,174
\h\h\hA complete stranger
comes along singing lyrics
\hfrom the second record.
936
01:20:49,471 --> 01:20:51,207
What the hell’s going on?
937
01:20:55,966 --> 01:20:57,504
The record had leaked.
938
01:20:57,504 --> 01:21:01,306
\h\hI couldn’t believe that
this was actually happening.
939
01:21:14,273 --> 01:21:16,372
\h\h\h\h\hJAMES: I went
to this club, Brownies,
940
01:21:16,372 --> 01:21:19,108
which I used to play at
\h\h\h\h\hall the time.
941
01:21:19,108 --> 01:21:21,471
There was a kid DJ-ing,
\h\h\h\h\h\hplaying ESG,
942
01:21:21,471 --> 01:21:24,438
\h\h\h\h\hand he plays
a Liquid Liquid song.
943
01:21:24,966 --> 01:21:25,603
What the fuck?
944
01:21:25,603 --> 01:21:28,075
\h\h\h\hThese records
took me years to find,
945
01:21:28,075 --> 01:21:31,306
\h\h\hand now some kid
can just download it?
946
01:21:32,702 --> 01:21:33,372
Wait a second.
947
01:21:33,372 --> 01:21:35,537
You didn’t write them,
\h\h\h\hyou just play them,
\h\h\h\h\hyou just own them,
948
01:21:35,537 --> 01:21:37,735
\h\h\hyou can’t be
proud of yourself
\h\hfor owning it.
949
01:21:37,735 --> 01:21:39,405
But I know that kid
\hwas at one of my parties.
950
01:21:39,405 --> 01:21:42,570
\hMAN: Even if this person
went to one of our parties,
\h\h\hI have no rights here.
951
01:21:42,570 --> 01:21:45,273
It’s the fucking
\hclosest I’ve ever been
\h\h\hto cool in my life
952
01:21:45,273 --> 01:21:46,372
and this fucking kid
\h\h\h\hcan take it?
953
01:21:46,372 --> 01:21:47,570
I was playing
\hthat six months ago.
954
01:21:47,570 --> 01:21:49,471
First of all,
it’s not your record,
\hyou didn’t make it.
955
01:21:49,471 --> 01:21:52,075
What’s worse
\h\h\hthan that guy?
956
01:21:52,273 --> 01:21:53,405
I’m disappointed
\h\h\h\h\h\hwith myself.

And smoke too much crack
\h\h\h\hbefore coming in

\hRemember that girl
that was downstairs,
995
01:24:39,306 --> 01:24:41,603
\h\h\h\hthat said she didn’t care
about The Hives and The Strokes,
996
01:24:41,603 --> 01:24:44,801
\hand she just wanted
like a big rock riff?
997
01:24:45,306 --> 01:24:47,438
I think that ought to do it.
\h\h\hWe are, um, we’re back.
998
01:24:47,438 --> 01:24:52,471
\h\h\h\hWe had a little nap,

\h\h\h\hnot many people

"Do any of The Strokes
\h\h\h\hwanna pop up?"
1006
01:25:08,669 --> 01:25:09,867
I called Albert.

You’re fucked up
\h\hand the idea’s funny.
1008
01:25:11,867 --> 01:25:16,504
\h\hOh, yeah, I’ll go up there

were just doing their thing
\h\h\hwhat Ryan always does.
1012
01:25:43,471 --> 01:25:47,900
\h\hFABRIZIO: When things go bad,

01:25:48,801 --> 01:25:51,504
When the band catch you
\h\h\h\h\h\h\hout of it.
1014
01:25:51,999 --> 01:25:57,306
I can be sitting here

\h\hand just... gone.
1015
01:25:57,306 --> 01:26:01,438
\h\h\hALBERT: There’s so many times
where I was just so close to...
1016
01:26:01,603 --> 01:26:02,537
to dying.
1017
01:26:36,405 --> 01:26:39,735
\h\h-
1018
01:26:40,603 --> 01:26:42,075
It could be over.
1019
01:26:42,075 --> 01:26:44,405
We could be over, you know.
1020
01:27:01,768 --> 01:27:04,603
Out of nowhere
\h\h\h\hI got an offer
\h\hfrom Arthur Baker.
1021
01:27:04,603 --> 01:27:09,141
\hHe’d heard our record
and he wanted us to come
\hplay a show in London.
1022
01:27:09,636 --> 01:27:11,966
There’s no way I can do this.
1023
01:27:12,141 --> 01:27:13,471
I can’t do it.
1024
01:27:13,471 --> 01:27:17,801
I don’t have a band.
\h\h\h\hIt’s just me
and a toy boom box.
1025
01:27:19,537 --> 01:27:23,636
\h\h\h\hI did the only thing
\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI could do,
call the people that I knew.
1026
01:27:23,636 --> 01:27:26,636

Deciding to start a band
1031
01:27:41,999 --> 01:27:46,141
\hin your 30’s
seemed absurd.
1032
01:27:47,933 --> 01:27:51,438
\h\h\h\hWe only had
10 days to rehearse.
1033
01:27:51,801 --> 01:27:57,801

singing in front of people.
1034
01:28:08,174 --> 01:28:13,075
\h\h\hNothing terrified me like
watching footage of John Lydon.
1035
01:28:13,075 --> 01:28:15,867
\hIt made me feel
so uncomfortable.
1036
01:28:15,867 --> 01:28:18,999
\hI realized
this would be
\hmy problem.
1037
01:28:20,867 --> 01:28:23,438

1038
01:28:23,438 --> 01:28:25,702
\h\h\h\h\h\hand he just
doesn’t exude himself.

Oh, my God.
1040
01:28:39,537 --> 01:28:42,042
