It’s been 5 years too long since The Strokes have released a record. Today, their long awaited 4th album Angles (BMG) comes out today, and it is already on the way to becoming a hit. We are celebrating The Strokes all day at Modern Mystery and are super excited about it. Enjoy!

The Strokes Take Over Saturday Night Live
The Strokes took over Saturday Night Live this weekend! The band performed two songs, the first single from Angles, “Undercover of Darkness,” and a new unheard track from the upcoming LP titled “Life is Simple in the Moonlight.” If these two tracks are a taste of the what the full record has to offer, this makes us even more excited. If thats possible. Watch the videos below!
The Strokes Drop New Video for “Undercover of Darkness,” Release Second Song on NME
If The Strokes didn’t get you all pysched with announcing a new album and following tour, they are certainly trying to entertain you now. The boys just released a video for the first single, “Undercover of Darkness.” This video is a little different for the band as it shows a more mature Strokes. Albert (sans Fro), Niko, Nick and Fab are all dressed up in suits as Julian is sporting the hipster-cool leather jacket look. Nice. The Strokes drop their long awaited record, Angles (BMG), on March 22nd and we have a feeling the fun isn’t going to stop anytime soon.
Oh wait! There’s more!
They just released a second song from the record titled “You’re So Right,” that you can stream exclusively on NME (where else?). Check out the new song HERE.
If this doesn’t get you excited, we don’t know what will.
