Julian Casablancas not so passionate about new Strokes album, will "take what he can get"

Are you already sick of the yet-to-be-released Strokes album? Here is more stuff about it!

According to a recent profile in the New York Times, the recording process for Angles, out March 22, was rather ambivalent at times.

Casablancas said about finally joining his band for the recording sessions, “I would say roughly 60 percent of what they did I thought was rad and I didn’t touch, and then 40 percent I would either alter it or it got left behind.“

“I think ‘collaboration Strokes’ is more on the side of just poppy than what I am interested in personally. I’ll take what I can get, so I’m happy.”

Sounds convincing! Here is that video they released last week, or something. (That’s our Strokes impression.)
