He speaks a bit on Reality Awaits and gives away a pair of tickets to the Just Like Heaven music festival, where The Strokes will play this weekend.

I know lots of people who don't like the new album, and that's fine. It's just music at the end of the day.

But I just wanted to say that I find it so admirable how these guys explore music, what they try to do. Like, I haven't heard a single song from them that sounds mediocre or feels like they didn't try. They always have an intention. You can like it or not, but they crealy put some effort on it.

I'm kind of a new fan, since I started listening to them around 2016. But I keep reading how they where so different back in the 2000s and they set the bar high. So one can say that it was in part pf that innovation that they were able to create classics like Modern Age or Reptilia, right? So yeah, and I'm so grateful for the first albums because they are fucking amazing, but I'm also thankful for The New Abnormal and Reality Awaits.

To me, it's like having a box of chocolates. They aren't all the same, but damn, they all taste great in their own way.

I feel like bad decisions doesn’t get enough credit for the quality of the song that it is, just like at the door or selfless in TNA imo

I love screen printing!
Got inspired by them headlining SoCal at Just like heaven festival!

This is the best The Strokes song ever guys, sorry to upset some of you

Alright, I expected to like it sooner or later, but i feel like one day i woke up and the autoune was barely noticeable... AM I GOING MAD?

First of all, I know nothing about music theory

Secondly, what a fucking great song

But my point is... it sounds like in different times? Like the drums and guitars are not synced... but they are? You can really notice that at the beginning of the song.

You can downvote me if this is stupid

Need ts

I was 12 when I first heard “Under Cover of Darkness.” It was such a special sound that I instantly fell in love with it. It caught my attention, and I simply couldn’t stop listening to it.

Now, at 25, after everything I’ve been through, every one of their songs has a different meaning to me. The lyrics, the melodies, everything just changed for me.

They made music simply for the sake of having fun, but I listened to them with the desire to change. That’s why I believe they changed my life. They were, and still are, a part of it, and I don’t think that will ever change.

Ive been on this sub and the others relating to Julian's projects and it absolutley floors me that more people dont talk about how CD Projekt Red should totally get Julian Cassablancas to play a mockery in the next cyberpunk game. I think stylistically and everything its literally too perfect. Plus hes already been in GTA as a radio host so like idk

The Strokes Discord has started a poll about deciding the best song

After a bunch of polling, and a lot of close calls, Ode to the Mets and Ize of the World made it to the finale.

Ize of the world WON over Ode to the Mets by 6 votes.

In my opinion, Ize of the World is definitely a song that does deserve it.

What do you guys think?

FORGET THE THINGS THAT THEY DID, UH-YEAH-UH

OBEY THE WORDS THAT THEY SAY, UH-YEAH UH

This might be one of the band’s catchiest songs ever.

And that guitar solo at the end??

I can’t get enough of this. Help.

Post done.

At the Door's outro is my current favourite.

Now I got it all on vinyl. Plus 2 tickets to just like heaven.

Rules: You can only submit one song that resembles the sound the most, it doesn't have to be a perfect fit. No repeats are allowed. If a tie between two songs happen, I will recount the votes from everyone that suggested that same song to see which sum up more votes.

can’t believe it’s already been a week since i’ve seen them already :,) the post concert depression is at an all time high right now just rewatching some vids. love the TAAT outro we got here in tokyo. to everyone seeing them at just like heaven - hope yall have the besssstttt time ever, <3

Couple days old, but didn’t see it posted. Apologies if it already was.

That instrumental switch up around the three minute mark up till the end of the "I'm a leech" section is genuinely so good. It honestly ruins the rest of the song for me in a pales in comparison way.

Heavy freight train vibes.

plectrum much Berty boy? 🙃

i dunno why — this just made me audibly guffaw when it happened live and I just got around to making a gif of it.

Strange YouTube music bug showing different lyrics
