Reality Awaits, and I guess so do we. The Strokes have pushed back the release date of their seventh studio album from June 26 to July 24. The group already previewed the project, their first full-length since 2020’s The New Abnormal, with the Auto-Tuned singles “Going Shopping” and “Falling Out of Love” and a big, politically-charged Coachella performance. No reason for the delay has been revealed. However, it’s been announced that the band’s longtime guitarist, Nick Valensi, is “taking a temporary break” from touring with the Strokes after a November fallout with frontman Julian Casablancas.
Bereft fans may be comforted, though, by the addition of a mammoth new concert to the band’s summer and fall tour dates. The show will take place at Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in New York City, where the group originated, and will feature Beach House, TV On The Radio, and Fcukers as supporting acts. The Strokes announced the additional show on Instagram with the caption, “Let’s go Knicks.” Their tour begins this weekend in Tennessee and carries across through October.
