Strokes fans rejoice! The garage rock band has confirmed that the release of their fifth studio album will be in 2013! They also added that the first single will drop “sooner than later”!
The album is just about finished and everyone involved is keeping their lips sealed, though a Seattle radio station claims to have gotten its hands on the first single, “All the Time.” The station says they plan to “leak” it. The single is said to embody the Strokes’ tradition sound and will not disappoint fans.
The rest of the album is said to have a synth-driven sound, but with enough of the traditional Strokes sound to appeal to old and new fans alike.
The band’s last album, ‘Angels’ was considered the band’s comeback after a five year hiatus when most of the band members experimented with solo projects. Despite being generally disliked by the band, the album was a hit!
