The Strokes will release new album “by March”

Bassist for The Strokes, Nikolai Fraiture, has revealed that the long-anticipated fourth album by the indie kings will finally see release by March this year.

Speaking to BBC Radio 1, the bassist explained that the album was in the mixing stages and that the sound was akin to the group’s second and third albums.

He said: “Sonically, I feel it's the album which should have been made between [2003's] 'Room On Fire' and [2006's] 'First Impressions Of Earth'.”

He also explained that the record had The Strokes’ “classic sound” and that an unnamed track has already been chosen as the lead single.
