The Strokes share the single “Going Shopping”

The Americans The Strokes They raised the eyebrows about what will be a new work for the group. First they advanced the title, “Reality Awaits”and now they share their first song, “Going Shopping”.

In 2022, The Strokes released what is their last studio album to date. We talk about “The New Abnormal”and since then there has been no information regarding a new album. But it seems that things are going to change sooner rather than later.

This summer we will have a new album from the group and it will be called “Reality Awaits”. The band has spread it through a short video on social networks in which we can see an old car from the eighties and hear just a few seconds of what is supposed to be one of the songs on the album. Although in reality it seems like the soundtrack of the advertisement for that Nissan car that appears in the image stepping on the accelerator. The phrase that accompanies the image is “In the flesh, it’s even sexier.”

In any case, now we can listen to the new song “Going Shopping”, a song that the band officially shares after having performed it live in the warm-up concerts for their Coachella show and having sent it on cassette tapes to a total of one hundred of their randomly chosen fans.

On the other hand, it is assumed that the recording was carried out with Rick Rubin (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beastie Boys, etc.) as a producer for a while now. In fact, in 2022, it was Rubin himself who said that they had finished some sessions in Costa Rica for what would be the group’s next album.
