The Strokes are an American rock band formed in New York City in 1998. Known for their garage rock revival sound, they quickly gained popularity with their debut album "Is This It" in 2001. The band consists of lead vocalist Julian Casablancas, guitarists Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond Jr., bassist Nikolai Fraiture, and drummer Fabrizio Moretti.

With their catchy melodies, raw energy, and stylish image, The Strokes became a leading force in the indie rock scene of the early 2000s. Their music draws influences from classic rock bands like The Velvet Underground and Television while adding their own modern twist.

Over the years, The Strokes have released several critically acclaimed albums including "Room on Fire," "First Impressions of Earth," and "Angles." They continue to captivate audiences with their infectious hooks and energetic live performances. With a dedicated fan base worldwide, The Strokes remain influential figures in alternative rock music.

The Strokes' fifth album Comedown Machine. Available here on LP and CD.

Comedown Machine stretches into the Eighties limelight, mining parcels of new wave and pop. “One Way Trigger” tries on A-ha, “Chances” revisits The Cars, “Tap Out” double dips into New Order and Bananarama, “Welcome to Japan” exorcises the tangy eclecticism of Talking Heads, while the title to “80s Comedown Machine” isn’t misleading in the slightest.
