The Strokes

The Strokes area n American rock band formed in 1998 in New York City who rose to fame in the early 2000s as a leading group in the garage rock revival. The band consists of Julian Casablancas (lead vocals), Nick Valensi (lead guitar), Albert Hammond, Jr. (rhythm guitar), Nikolai Fraiture (bass guitar) and Fabrizio Moretti (drums and percussion).

In January 2001, The Strokes released a demo EP, The Modern Age, on independent record label Rough Trade. The band signed up with RCA Records, and released their debut LP Is This It in August 2001. Helped by lead single “Hard to Explain”, tha album debuted at number two in the UK and number 33 on the Billboard 200. The group released their next LP, Room on Fire, in October 2003. The album did well on the charts, reaching number two and going platinum in the UK. The band's latest album First Impressions of Earth was released in January 2006.

In my opinion, the best song is “Reptilia” of “Room on Fire”. Now, you can see one video of this song!

See you ;)
