The Strokes

The Strokes are a New York-based rock band. They gained prominence in the early 2000s as a key band in the garage rock revival. They are newsworthy because they are releasing their seventh studio album, 'Reality Awaits,' on June 26th, marking their first album release in six years since 'The New Abnormal'. The album was recorded in Costa Rica with producer Rick Rubin. The first single from the album, titled 'Going Shopping,' has already been released. This new album is a significant event for fans and the music industry, as it represents a return for a band that has had a considerable influence on contemporary rock music.
