The seventh studio effort from Julian Casablancas and company, and their first since 2020’s The New Abnormal, is due out in the summer, according to a video posted to the band’s Instagram.
Said video begins with an image of a car as the screen reads, “In The Flesh, It’s Even Sexier.”
“Reality Awaits The new album by The Strokes,” the video continues. “Out this summer.”
