A Conversation With The Strokes

[@chloemcginley8275]

Fab has enough personality for the entire band lol

[@zaliareyes2733]

Hahaha I know! he's pretty charismatic.. all 5 are pretty awesome actually. Julian is the least I guess ehehhehee but he´s JULIAN CASABLANCAS.

[@marulapirucha6610]

Alegría brasilera! no puede evitarlo, nacen asi.

[@EminentKnight]

And hair. The rest of the band members could be bald. But it wouldn't matter because Fab's hair would compensate for their baldness.

Lmao fab is the voice of the strokes no one else wants to take the questions seriously

[@moonsmonsters]

i was thinking the same. fab is the only one really into this

[@TheJupiteL]

And even then the cameraman just zooming in randomly makes it a hell of a lot less serious.

I got really emotional watching this, they got something I never found in any other band

Yeah, i think they're in their 30s or something

[@rockdamic]

I've been listening to the Strokes since Is This It but I haven't seen many group interviews like this one. It's funny how get a glimpse of their personnality. I always thought Nikolai as the introverted one and Julian as outspoken. Seems the other way around.

[@mindexit07]

they never age, except Julian, he looks like he's maybe aged the most. Albert actually looks better now then when he was younger, which i'm sure has to do with him getting sober.

Please, The Strokes come to Malaysia. You wont be disappointed, you have thousands of fans here. Believe me, every single indie band that comes out here (there's a lot of them, quite a few of them are successful) were influenced by you guys. We love you guys here. We had Tame Impala about two months ago and the atmosphere was nuts, if you guys come then it would be crazier than anything we had before.

That’s so cool man

[@ericscott9029]

The Strokes, easily my personal favorite band and at least one of the best bands of the 2000's, is making a new single very soon. I have no words for this, as I am absolutely psyched to know they are still together, and that they are continuing to make excellent and diverse music! In musical history, very few bands are able to survive, keep the same sort of energy or flow in their music and here The Strokes are again; 15 years later, still a band, still performing, still thinking of keeping alive. And it is very hard for bands like The Strokes to carry on that Post-Punk Revival style today, because the world's music culture is even more accessible and diverse, and I find this even more amazing that they still have a loyal, energetic and nostalgic fan base supporting them since 2001. Long live The Strokes!!!!!!!!!!

[@PirateRadioDude]

Tbh i dont see any problems between them. Its obvious they had issues in the past, but it looks like theyve put those issues behind them. Theyre still pretty goofy around each other, maybe not like how they were before but then again theyre all in their mid-late 30s now so its understandable. Most importantly, theyre settling in and look like theyre having fun around each other.

The strokes are the first band ive seen to go so fucking off topic on the 3 albums question.. most people ive seen in interviews who get asked that just state their favorite albums but albert and nick had to bring up that weird debate and make me laugh so hard it hurt. Also im so glad nick re-asked fab after they went off topic bc fab really did look like he wanted to answer the question genuinely before albert spoke up😭😭 I love every member of this band so much its disgusting

Brazil and South American countries in general seem to go apeshit crazy at concerts. It's awesome.

I think It's probably because big artists don't come to Brazil very often. When they come it's only for a couple concerts and sometimes it takes years for them to come back.
