Free Strokes Song

You like the Strokes, don't you? If you don't, please leave my blog. We seriously can't be friends.

There's no denying that when Is This It came out, the whole world dropped everything and paid notice. It was like a resurgence of the underground garage rock days of the 60s and 70s. Some people say that after that it was all downhill, but I won't hear anything like that from anyone thank you very much. Room on Fire was magnificent and First Impressions of Earth brought an extra dose of loud rock and kick-ass with it.

They then took a break, Albert went off and made some beautiful, reminiscent of 1960s pop-rock music, while Julian put out some of the same old same old.

But now, they're back together. They're putting the finishing touches on a new album and the first song can be yours. For free. But only for the next 48 hours.

Called Under the Cover of Darkness, you can grab it right here. I've only listened to it about 10 times already, but I'll let you form your own impression of it. I don't want to bias it at all.
