Is This It? The return of The Strokes is finally upon us, with the 'Someday' indie heroes to debut their brand new single today (Thursday 26 May).
Back in December, it was revealed that the band had been in the studio working on new music. The first taster of their sound since 2013's Comedown Machine is on its way, according to a trailer for frontman Julian Casablancas’ new radio show on US radio station Sirius XMU-which has announced “the world premiere of brand new music from The Strokes.”
Set your alarms, as Culture Void will air at 3pm UK time. Listen online here.
Casablancas' label Cult Records have also shared a video of The Strokes' logo being beamed across London and New York with the words ‘Future Present Past’.
Speaking to Gigwise about progress on new music last year, guitarist Albert Hammond Jr said: "My personality just doesn't allow for that so I keep The Strokes on the side until I have something going on. Otherwise it would just drain me of energy."
Let's hope their energy came back in spades.
The Strokes' last UK show was at Hyde Park for British Summer Time last year - could we expect a tour announcement soon too?
