OMG Interwebs, New Strokes, New Strokes, New Strokes


If you opened up Firefox, Chrome, Safari, or Internet Explorer today, you may have seen that The Strokes have released their new single, "Under Cover of Darkness."

If you tried to download it, you also might've noticed that it's taking forever to get the MP3 sent to your inbox, so I'm hosting it below.

The song's a pseudo-return to form, but still has a lot of that dislikable polish last heard on 2006's disappointing First Impressions of Earth. Then again, it's got a handful of riffs, solos, and charms that haven't been heard from the band since their first two LPs. One thumb up.

Definitely better than expected. Although not quite great.

Agreed. I'm at least optimistic about the upcoming album though...
