Question: What kind of bands are Razorlight and The Strokes?
Context: Ryan Michael Gentles (born November 28, 1977) is the manager of the New York City-based band, The Strokes and the Chief Executive Officer of Wiz Kid Management.  Before meeting the Strokes, he was the vocalist and guitarist in two bands, Timmsie's First Time, which broke up in 1995 and The Selzers, which broke up in 2000.  Matthew Romano, The Strokes' drum technician and back-up drummer, was also in both bands, playing drums.  Recently Ryan has stated that being part of the Selzers "was not exactly a proud moment" for him. Post-punk revival (also known as "new wave revival", "garage rock revival" or "new rock revolution") is a genre of alternative rock and indie rock that developed in the late 1990s and early 2000s, inspired by the original sounds and aesthetics of garage rock of the 1960s and new wave and post-punk of the 1980s.  Bands that broke through to the mainstream from local scenes across the world in the early 2000s included the Strokes, Interpol, the White Stripes, the Hives and the Vines who were followed to commercial success by many established and new acts.  By the end of the decade, most of the bands had broken up, moved on to other projects or were on hiatus, although some bands returned to recording and touring in the 2010s. The Strokes are an American rock band from New York City.  Formed in 1998, the band is composed of vocalist Julian Casablancas, lead guitarist Nick Valensi, rhythm guitarist Albert Hammond Jr., bassist Nikolai Fraiture, and drummer Fabrizio Moretti.  Following the conclusion of five-album deals with RCA and Rough Trade, the band has continued to release new music through Casablancas' Cult Records. Ronde ("round" in French) is a kind of script in which the heavy strokes are nearly upright, giving the characters when taken together a round look. Kinch is an indie pop band from Phoenix, Arizona.  Their sound has been described as "an alt-rock pop style reminiscent of a few Brit bands, hearkening back to the sensibilities of '60s garage rock."  The band's debut album, "Advances", was honored as the Best Arizona Album of 2008 by the Phoenix New Times.  Their pop sound has drawn comparisons to Coldplay and The Strokes, while others have likened them to Ben Folds, Rick Ross and Blur.  The name 'Kinch' is a reference to the character Stephen Dedalus in the novel "Ulysses" by James Joyce. Simla Beat 70/71 is a garage rock compilation issued by Normal Records consisting of songs which originally appeared on the "Simla Beat 70" and "Simla Beat 71" albums showcasing bands who appeared at the All-India Simla Beat battle of the bands contests held those two years in Bombay, India.  The Imperial Tobacco Company sponsored the annual events to advertise their Simla brand of menthol cigarettes which were marketed to the country's youth of the time.  Groups from all around India would compete for first prize.  The "Simla Beat '70–71" compilation includes recordings of some of the bands who attended in 1970 and 1971.  The album was not recorded live on stage, but in a primitive makeshift studio using very little overdubbing or sound reinforcement.  Though recorded in the early 1970s, the music bears an uncanny resemblance to the kind of garage and psychedelic sounds more typical of 1966 and 1967 in Western countries, perhaps due to the India's' relative isolation and lack of technological progress in that era. Razorlight is an English indie rock band formed in 2002 by lead singer and rhythm guitarist Johnny Borrell.  The band are primarily known in the UK, having topped the charts with the 2006 single "America" and its parent self-titled album, their second.  Along with Borrell, the current lineup of the band consists of drummer David Sullivan Kaplan, lead guitarist Gus Robertson, and bassist João Mello. In golf, par is the predetermined number of strokes that a scratch (or 0 handicap) golfer should require to complete a hole, a round (the sum of the pars of the played holes), or a tournament (the sum of the pars of each round).  Pars are the central component of stroke play, the most common kind of play in professional golf tournaments.  The term is also used in golf-like sports such as disc golf, with the same meaning. A snare drum or side drum is a percussion instrument that produces a sharp staccato sound when the head is struck with a drum stick, due to the use of a series of stiff wires held under tension against the lower skin.  Snare drums are often used in orchestras, concert bands, marching bands, parades, drumlines, drum corps, and more.  It is one of the central pieces in a drum set, a collection of percussion instruments designed to be played by a seated drummer, which is used in many genres of music.  Snare drums are usually played with drum sticks, but other beaters such as the brush or the rute can be used to achieve very different sounds.  The snare drum is a versatile and expressive percussion instrument due its sensitivity and responsiveness.  The sensitivity of the snare drum allows it to respond audibly to the softest strokes, even with a wire brush; as well, it can be used for complex rhythmic patterns and engaging solos at moderate volumes.  Its high dynamic range allows the player to produce powerful accents with vigorous strokes and a thundering crack (120+ dB) when rimshot strokes are used. Shoplifter Records was originally an English record company created by producer Gordon Raphael and Paul Harrison[disambiguation needed] as a partnership in 2003.  Raphael has acted as producer for many bands, but most notably for The Strokes' albums Is This It?  and Room on Fire. ↵Shoplifter signed Regina Spektor to her first contract and released the album Soviet Kitsch after teaming up with Sony S.I.N.E for international licensing. ↵.  ↵Other artists to pass through Shoplifter's doors are The Satellites, Anna Mercedes, Miss Machine- who were actually the first release on Shoplifter, Absinthee, Black Light and Kill Kenada, and Char Johnson.The following year saw the merger of Sony Music and BMG which also coincided with Raphael relocating to Berlin.  .  The label's first single "Your Honour" by Regina Spektor was NME single of the week, beating Brian Wilson, Robbie Williams and R.E.M. amongst others. ↵The album Soviet Kitsch was voted into the top 50 albums in the majority of that year's music press and broadsheet reviews.  Raphael is currently producing bands internationally, but based in Berlin since 2005.
