No "Bad Decisions" here, just new music from The Strokes.
After teasing a new era earlier this week, the band dropped a surprise single, "Going Shopping," giving listeners their first real taste of what's to come from their upcoming album.
The rock band first sparked buzz on Monday (April 6), when they took to Instagram to announce their next project, Reality Awaits. The post featured a retro-inspired teaser video with the tagline, "in the flesh, it's even sexier," before flashing the message: "Reality Awaits: The new album by The Strokes."
Set to arrive this summer, Reality Awaits marks the band's seventh studio album and their first full-length release in six years.
While the initial teaser left fans speculating, The Strokes wasted no time delivering new music. Without any prior announcement, the band quietly released "Going Shopping," catching listeners off guard and quickly generating excitement online.
The track signals a new chapter for the group, blending their signature sound with a fresh energy that hints at what's ahead on Reality Awaits.
