Awesome The Strokes

Norteño Strokes

Norteño Strokes

We recently stumbled upon the EZ Band, and we’re glad that we did. This Houston-based group of musicians has many talents, among them the ability to take alternative music and spice it up with their Norteño sound. This cover of The Strokes’ Last Nite is one of our favorites, but you should also check out their Smiths and My Chemical Romance tracks too.

The Strokes: The Adults Are Talking

It’s The Strokes vs. the Robots in the Roman Coppola-directed music video for their track The Adults Are Talking. Donning awesome Houston Astros-inspired uniforms, Julian Casablancas and his bandmates go toe-to-toe with a baseball-playing android. But will humanity prevail, or will the bots win the day?

The Strokes: At the Door

Written and directed by Mike Burakoff, the animated music video for The Strokes stripped-down new track “At the Door” has a fantastic look. Inspired by classic anime style, it tells an abstract tale of a boy torn between his reality and a dark alternative universe. From The New Abnormal, due out 4/10/2020.

The Strokes: Future Present Past

The Strokes: Future Present Past

(PG-13: Language) New York’s premiere garage rockers The Strokes have a pleasant surprise, a new EP that slowly but surely harkens back to the band’s Room on Fire days. Go straight for Threat of Joy, ye of little faith, then give the other two tracks a shot.

In many ways, they’ll miss the good old days. Vocalist Cristina Gatti and Postmodern Jukebox turn in a sultry Casablanca-inspired version of The Strokes’ Someday, transforming it into a completely new, but just as wonderful song.

Punch Brothers x The Strokes

While we were watching that TMBG x Destiny’s Child cover, we stumbled onto another great performance from A.V. Club’s Undercover – neo bluegrass band Punch Brothers doing an insanely great version of The Strokes’s Reptilia.

The Strokes have always been on our Pandora playlist, but this is one time where we’re thinking the cover version could be better than the original. Reptilia on banjo, mandolin and violin. Brilliant.
