Review: The New Strokes is still the Old Strokes with a New Twist.... ABNORMALLY great record!! - It is the sheer quality of Rubin's production that first hits you from the go on this fabulous album by the now middle aged ( I know....Scary!!!) American 'cool 2000s rock' trend setters. The Strokes were always outstanding talents and the DNA of their sound whilst influenced by great bands like Television, The Ramones, Green Day and Radiohead...with a smidgeon of the Chilli Peppers, has been felt thought pop and rock since their hay day....with the likes of Bloc Party, the Killers, and pretty much any moderately successful rock band owing a debt to this strand authentic streetwise rock flair. We know Is This It, Room On Fire and their third album Impressions, were all excellent....and for me Angles came close....but The New Abnormal exceeds expectations. The Strokes have pulled off a timely classic record that shows the evolution of their sound first hinted at satisfactorily on Angles. The electronic side of the band oozes out of each track, but also the brilliant guitar chugging we know and love. Endless Summer is a masterpiece of composition and production. Kudos to Rubin who's work here feels as worthy a contribution as any band members. The richness when loud on my headphones is amazing. I think it was Beck's album ....the one with Paper Tiger....which is great... Where I first heard a 'new level's of sound quality in music production. And for me Endless Summer is a track people will look back on and say Wow!! For years to come. It may be the brilliant production in the end that seals the 'timeless classic' deal. Saying that the boys have worked hard to make a disciplined and well trimmed album where each track feels designed to please different aspects of the bands matured musical identity. For me this is The Strokes best ever. Love it.
Review: Their best album yet ! - Where to start ?. When you make the most brilliant and 'Perfect' debut album, as these guys did, surely the only way is down ?. I've liked all the Strokes albums since 'Is this it', they've all been at least good, but obviously always in the shadow of their timeless debut. The New Abnormal is the sound of a rejuvenated band doing what they want and continuing to head into new directions with their sound. Julian Casablancas, really pushes himself into new territory here with some outstanding vocals, flipping from his trademark New York style drawl to a falsettos and back. The epic synth sounds that sound like they're belong on a motion picture soundtrack. Everything just sounds incredible on this album and grabs your attention immediately. You can dance, tap your feet and wallow here. There's a song for every mood across these 9 songs taking you a rollercoaster of styles. The slower tracks that didn't grab me so much at first are now actually my favourite songs on the album. The album closers - 'Not the same anymore' and 'Ode to the mets' are powerful, haunting and epic slowburn tracks that linger with you long after. I'm floored by this album, and just how any band after 20 years can still be this good and still evolving !. This is my favourite album by the Strokes, yes , even above 'Is this it'. Stunning
