The first time I was trying to solo over a new song with The Walkups, I accidentally regurgitated the first four bars of the solo on this song without meaning to. I've never transcribed this solo, and at the time I wasn't even particularly fond of this song. I was sure I had copied my solo from somewhere but wasn't sure where. This song came on shuffle a couple days later while I was biking to work and I suddenly realized I had unconsciously ripped off an entire measure of the solo.

Anyways, I like this solo a lot.

By convention, I'm used to guitar solos happening after the second chorus, where a bridge would usually be in a song. But it seems like a lot of indie rock songs tend to place them right after the first chorus. This song does that, 
I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor and 
The Modern Age do as well.

Come to think of it, I can't think of a single Strokes song where the solo happens during the bridge.
