Julian took to Twitter on Tuesday to announce the completion of The Strokes’ fourth album…
Update No. 1: Nikolai confirmed the same news yesterday with a tweet that said: “YES! It’s true. Strokes IV is DONE!! Let’s go party…”
I started this website on June 9, 2010 and since then, I’ve posted a lot of content about The Strokes. Over the past five months, the most popular article in TSN’s history has far-and-away been Adam Green’s NME piece. It’s a bit ludicrous to think that half of the stuff Green writes about is correct, but it’s been five years since the last Strokes record and nobody knows shit about what Strokes IV is like at this point.
All we know is that they are finished and there is actually going to be a fourth record. Today is glorious.
UPDATE No. 2: At 6:55 in Part 1…
Ryan: “What do you think your fourth record will sound like?”
Julian: “I don’t know, whatever, whatever the market needs. Whatever will make a profit.”
Ryan: “Right… That’s the bottom line.”
Julian: “That’s the bottom line, you know. It’s all about the money.”

Glorious, indeed.
Yay! And “a few months” sounds very promising as well. Though I’ve readied myself for it, this tweet seems to suggest there won’t be another setback, but rather that they’re right on track, even comfortably prepared, for a March release!
Yay!!! What else can be said? Uh, how ’bout…Julian’s way hot? K, that too.
HALLELUJAH!
…and for once, JC isn’t a total party pooper about the album. EXCITEMENT!
Mwahahah! Excellent news, I needed that.
Fucking Fabulous!
i just read this after having 4 cups of coffee and i am fucking revvvvvvedd up!!
Strokes IV!!!!
ok why does “mixing, etc” take more than a few months?? thats like the easy part innit?
Most exciting news I’ve heard in a long time. I literally freaked out when I read it. I freaked a few people out myself. This means (hopefully) no more setbacks and that there will (once again, hopefully) be a March release! Lol at the video btw. Best documentary I’ve ever seen.
aawww…
this would have been strokes post #629…
YES!!!!!!! Great day!
oh yea! dancin right now! paryin it up! oh yeaaaaa! oh yes yes yes!
Ahhh yes. Lovin’ the In Transit reference. I can’t remember how many times I’ve watched that, imagining this moment, when Strokes IV is a reality. I must now watch it again!
I think it’s funny Nikolai refers to the album as “Strokes IV” as well. Didn’t even phase me at first, but surely he picked it up from us fans, no? hahah
GAH
MY PENIS IS SO FUCKING HARD I NEED TO FUCK SOMETHING
