[HeatherAnne]

That is definitely not Binki in that picture.

Assuming you are all referring to the girl in #1658

 

[chumscrubber]

oh just kidding, i misinterpreted! that's ana calderon, she does work with dimmak

 

[HeatherAnne]

Haha, thanks for clearing it up and identifying Ana

 

[Rykiel]

i hope there's some truth behind this magical feb '09 date. i'll crap myself when their new album finally comes to fruition, then hopefully a tour, arghhh.

 

[XxpinktinksxX]

It better be true, NEED a new album.

 

[HeatherAnne]

Agree with the hurry up and make a new album sentiments Here is a little info about a new song Julian's done, doesn't excite me, but it's news.

The Strokes' Julian Casablancas will appear on a new album by Saturday Night Live trio The Lonely Island.

The singer has recorded a track titled 'Boombox' for 'Incredibad', which is due to be released on February 10th.

The album also includes collaborations with Maroon 5, T-Pain and Adam Levine.

Casablancas formed a relationship with The Lonely Island – which of consists of comedian Andy Samberg and writers Jorma Taccone and Akiva Schaffer – after The Strokes performed on SNL.

The Lonely Island have enjoyed huge success across the US thanks to their sketches on the show - one of which featured Justin Timberlake.

a new album on feb? Oh My God!!! is that true?

 

[LegsXI]

if they start recording in feb I wonder when the new album will be out

 

[HeatherAnne]

^ Good question, I would guess sometime aruound the Fall? Can't believe they've been around for 10 years!

 

[xPedro]

Julian doesn't have children right ? Oh, and is he still married to that blonde ?

 

[Romantic Rebel]

I also like The Strokes.
I particularly like the singles Last Night and Someday.

since there isn't a thread for Little Joy, i thought i could post this video here... not only fabrizio is in it (obviously), but also nick valensi, on the drums.

i love the 70s vibe and the tropical colors...

 

[lunabella]

they look and sound like an 80's raggae pothead version of the strokes.

it's strange to see fab on guitar and nick on drums. . . role reversal fun time.

 

[chumscrubber]

I miss these boys so much, I hope if they do hit the studio/start laying songs down this Feb we can maybe see a new album by late this year?

 

[Eleonorah]

I've been listening to them a lot lately, I can never get bored of their songs! I hope they'll tour next year (or end of this year? I dont know when the album comes out but I cant wait) 'cause I really really want to see them live!

 

[HeatherAnne]

Julian and Nick are starting to write songs for the next album already!

^Finally, they used to be my fav band (peep the name) but I think it's been going downhill since FIOE (which wasn't that great of a record in my opinion). This album better not be FIOE part 2.

 

[Rykiel]

Yaaaaay. That's what I wanna hear - progression.
