This was just the beginning for Tyler - since then he has become a Grammy Award winning artist, releasing six studio albums, launching an internationally acclaimed music festival (Camp Flog Gnaw) that has sold out 8 years running, creating two lifestyle brands (Golf Wang and Golf Le Fleur) that have collaborated with heritage brands like Converse, Lacoste and more, as well as developing two more TV shows (The Jellies! for Adult Swim and Nuts & Bolts for Viceland). A recording artist, songwriter, producer, director, designer and more he first emerged in 2007 as co-founder of the collective Odd Future before going on to co-create and star in the cult TV show Loiter Squad on Adult Swim with his Odd Future cohorts. The album’s cover artwork is a painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Bird on Money. The New Abnormal features tracks ‘Brooklyn Bridge To Chorus’, ‘Bad Decisions’ and ‘At The Door’. Associated Press called it “a superb slice of indie rock, varied, exciting and complex, with elements of glam, straight-down-the-line rock and dreamy pop,” while Under the Radar declared it “the most vital and consistent the band has sounded in over a decade.” Produced by legendary producer Rick Rubin and recorded at his Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, their sixth studio album has received rave reviews. In 2020 The Strokes returned with Grammy Award winning Best Rock Album The New Abnormal. Two decades on, Is This It is still as stunning as ever and a perennial feature on best album lists around the globe.Īlways on point, the band followed their debut with an onslaught of successful albums including Room on Fire (2003), First Impressions of Earth (2006), Angles (2011), Comedown Machine (2013) and EP, Future Present Past (2016).
Universally acclaimed, this minimalist rock masterpiece propelled singer Julian Casablancas, guitarists Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond Jr, bassist Nikolai Fraiture and drummer Fabrizio Moretti into the stratosphere.
Formed in NY in the late 90s, it is impossible to overstate the impact that The Strokes made on the global music scene when their debut album, Is This It and its singles ‘Last Night’, ‘Hard To Explain’ and ‘Someday’ dropped in 2001.
