Criteria marked are unassessed

Lead and infobox

• Link Julian Casablancas

 Done

• Prefer the active voice over passive voice i.e. "The band first performed the song live at a 2019 New Year's Eve concert at Barclays center"

 Done

Background

• Lead says "waiting on the MTA" which is not mentioned here. For a non-New Yorker this is confusing.

 Done — Changed to a more neutral term, simply mentioning "a subway train" while also linking to the specific subway line.

• “something that you set your heart to and that you love unconditionally but that continues to disappoint you.” lacking source

 Done — Was supposed to be covered by the Sports Illustrated source placed at the end of the previous sentence, now corrected.

Composition

• "guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. emulates a Mellotron cello patch with an Electro-Harmonix MEL9 pedal, which guitarist Nick Valensi had previously used for the title track on the band's previous album, Comedown Machine" lacking source

Removed. Seems this was fan speculation added by another user.

Reception

• Great.

Personnel

• Great.

Chart performance

• Great.

References

• How is Spectrum Culture a reliable source?

How is it not? I don't see anything that disqualifies it as such. It has been widely used as a source for music-related articles without disapproval (GAs/FAs that have used Spectrum Culture as a source include Floodland (album), MF Doom, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, and Everywhere at the End of Time).

Do we have proof that it is not a self-published source? Or do we have information on the site's writers' credentials? Ippantekina (talk) 01:41, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

@Ippantekina: There is a staff page on their site detailing all of their main staff plus their contributors. Spectrum Culture operates in the same vein as Pitchfork, Consequence, NME, etc. – not a self-published source. Aria1561 (talk) 04:54, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

Perfect, thank you! Ippantekina (talk) 06:37, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

External links

• I suggest moving the YouTube URL to the infobox using {{External music video}}}

 Done

Overall

•  On hold for seven days. Ippantekina (talk) 15:03, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

@Ippantekina: All issues have been addressed. Aria1561 (talk) 18:01, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for addressing everything. I have a remaining query regarding the reliability of Spectrum Culture. Ippantekina (talk) 01:42, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

Great work with the article. Passing-- Ippantekina (talk) 06:37, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
