Sirius said last night The Strokes are finishing their fourth CD, due this spring. While I very much enjoyed the first two, and the Hammond, Jr. solo disc, the last album and Casablanca's radio singles I've heard all felt empty. Hopefully the going separate ways and reuniting thing will bring some studio magic.

Oh. You're funny. I actually searched for a TBA thead and nothing came up, so I think the forum has already decided.

It was on the first page! Weird. Maybe the search feature is corrupt.

I don't actually remember you posting this ??? Have you somehow managed to hack the forum? I would have thought people would have replied to new Strokes, like in the thread I created. Strange, indeed.

You can always dream, my friend. Allaccess is the source. You can probably remove the question mark for now, although they have been making slight errors with song titles recently (A Silent Film, REM)

Interesting title, I think it'll be a pretty cool song based on that.
Or it could go the other way, a la "Mine Smell Like Honey", which is a great song with a ridiculous title.

Not bad. Sounds more like their older stuff.

Just heard the song twice in a row on the radio... not sure if I love it, but it's a solid track. Definitely a bit of a "throwback" for them.

It's a fine song, but nothing really sticks out to me after the first listen.

I like it...but it doesn't really strike me as a single... the song seems like it's longer than it actually is, like it just kinda drags on.
i'd like to see it do well but i feel like it's pretty much going to be a non factor

+200 exactly on the official chart. Pretty strong start for not even being available to radio yet.

It's a shame they had to share the SNL stage with Miley.
