Speaking to the recently brought back from the brink BBC-6 music (yesssss!!), Strokes front man Julian Casablancas claims the perpetually delayed new album is finally nearing completion- sorta. Actually over a year ago, the general feeling among the band was that the album was almost done and would be out in mid to late 2010. According to Casablancas some in the group thought the album was ready for release yet others were convinced it needed a touch more fine tuning. As the post First Impressions of Earth funk continued to linger around the group the album got pushed back repeatedly. First to the end of the year, then to Jan 2011, and now it would appear the album is coming out march next year. Here's hoping we don't have to endure another Albert Hammond Jr in the mean time. Excerpts of the interview below.
