Strokes fans haven’t been treated to a new album from the band since 2006, and finally, 5 years later, the group is set to release a new album. While as a whole nothing has been released, many of the members have gone to do solo projects that have been pretty successful.
Bassist for the band, Nikolai Fraiture, confirmed the release date on Zane Lowe’s BBC Radio 1 show. Having completed recording the album in November, the group is set to finish the final stages of creating the record. Not only will the album mean new music from the New York based band, but hopefully a tour around the globe too.
