childhood is thinking the strokes are in any way cool or good

adolescence is realizing Jack White is a dirty dumb protohipster and "post punk revival" was the worst fucking thing

adulthood is realizing the Hives are the shit

Nonsense. The Hives sounded like Iggy Pop and the Stooges covering New York Dolls songs. Nothing they did was original or innovative so they just fizzled out.

All of the aforementioned groups are considered to be part of this "garage rock" revival which was really just four or five bands that didn't sound like the overproduced post-grunge / nu-metal shite that was everywhere in 2003. They all had a more raw tone and of course music critics have to say that this means that it's a revival or rehash or redo of something earlier.
