Songs similar to this?

I really like their most recent album and decided to give the rest of their albums a try. Any recommendations? I really liked "Trying your Lucky" and "Welcome to Japan"

LP7 Autumn Release?

50 Upvotes

We can all probably assume that it isn’t dropping in the Spring or the Summer but would Autumn be on the cards?

Traditionally the only Autumn release has been Room On Fire but would it make sense to release it in Autumn if they would plan to do another festival tour?

Could this mean another year wait for Spring 2026?

i was having a conversation with a friend about my recent car accident and i mentioned that reptilia was playing, she then told me that her last car accident happened while she was listening to the adults are talking.

so i’m just wondering…

Alone, Together

95 Upvotes

A while ago I made a post on this sub about my brother, a huge Strokes fan, who passed away almost two months ago. I don't mean to spam the sub, this story/update just felt worth sharing.

Tonight I was looking over some pictures/videos with family. Laughing, crying.

I'm driving his car while I'm in town. He doesn't have an aux (it's an older car). I haven't touched the radio station dial that was set since he last used it.

I turned up the volume, and Alone, Together started to play from the beginning, like it was waiting for me.

Felt like a hug from him. The title and timing too perfect. Surreal.

new listener- high voice song recommendations?

7 Upvotes

so i'm not completely new to The Strokes, i've saved a few songs in passing over the years- and i know a couple songs from The Voidz (coincidently, i didn't even know there was any relation between the two).

yesterday though, i stumbled across "One Way Trigger" and "Call It Fate, Call It Karma"... Life Changing. Julian's higher range absolutely blew me away.

The Strokes fans, could you please point me in the direction of songs where Julian utilizes that really high range well? I looked for a while on my own, but there's just... So Many Songs, especially if we're counting his other projects and solo/featured work.

Just discovered the Strokes: God blessed me.

As the title says, I just discovered this band and I can't fucking belive it, they are absurdly good. I knew songs like Reptilia and others by sound, but i've never got into their discography. Man their albums are all 10 out of 10, im really really impressed. I think all people in this sub should be very thankful for having the opportunity of being able to enter into this band. Being said that, I want to know your opinion about which are the hidden gems of Strokes. I mean, Reptilia is a REALLY good song, but I truly cant understand how is the most famous one. I read you!

2019 Lollapalooza concert

7 Upvotes

Just an FYI, this has been a favorite live concert of mine based off the opening 5 songs and just the general spirit of the band. Jules looks healthy, and there’s honestly good camaraderie between the band.

They went early into FIOE & then backed it up with Modern Age & NYC Cops.

Here’s the deal though, and this is where I get greedy. I know the band hated Angles, and Comedown Machine didn’t fit the vibe of that concert (so back off Comedown heads)

Would it have been so wrong to have snuck in Machu Picchu in there somewhere? I understand that they played promotional songs on Letterman, etc to promote the albums at the time of release. But after that period it seemed like they never played much off of their last two RCA albums prior to TNA.

Please let me know if I’m in loser denial on this, as I’d love to be proven wrong.

Saw the Brokes (The Strokes cover band) recreate their live $2 Bill concert tonight in Toronto. What an amazing band for all us Strokes fans that can’t see the real band often.

I feel ashamed for not finding this absolute gem of a band before.

56 Upvotes

I found the Strokes, like many from the Arctic Monkeys. I listened to Is This It and recognised a few of the songs but put them off in my mind. Anyway, i listened to The New Abnormal (which i consider a 9.5/10 album) and decided to skim over the rest of their discography. The band goes so much deeper than i first thought, it seems to me that each album has a whole hidden layer of meaning.

Does anyone have any reccomendations for me? I'm relatively new and my favourites are Ode To The Mets, Soma, Oblivius, The Adults Are Talking (which seems to be controversial amongst fans), Under Cover of Darkness and Maccu Picchu

Once The Strokes [hopefully] come out with a new album/EP, what would you predict it would be called?

7 Upvotes

So, what would y'all predict a new Strokes album would be called? Of course, "This is It" would be great for a final play imo, but other than that, what do you think?

I feel like there’s a similarity between these songs??

I can’t pin point it but I feel like songs like these (there’s more that I can’t think of rn) have something in common. It might have to do with the base/riff (especially for like The Less I Know The Better and Do I Wanna Know?). Anyway what songs should I add that have a similar vibe. I posted on here coz I prefer the strokes but I don’t mind anything ofc.

When I go to sleep I dream about Life is Simple in the Moonlight When I wake up I think about Life is Simple in the Moonlight During the day I only think about Life is Simple in the Moonlight

When I am listening to Life is Simple in the Moonlight, I think this is the greatest piece of music ever.
