The New Abnormal

The Strokes

Seven years after their previous effort, the band shifted their perspective toward synth-heavy production. Rick Rubin oversaw these sessions, resulting in a project that leans into eighties influences while maintaining the jagged guitar work expected from the group.

The final track, Ode to the Mets, showcases a melancholic shift in their songwriting approach. The overall result feels like a drive through a city at night, blending electronic elements with their established rock identity.
