Music News :: Julian Casablancas is Making a Solo Album

Every member of The Strokes seems to be a pretty advantageous and prolific artist, so long as it doesn't happen to be in regards to the band itself. Recently NME reported that between his busy schedule of doing guest spots and shoe commercials, Julian Casablancas will soon be releasing a solo album, Phrazes For the Young, which came with an accompanying trailer. The album is produced by Jason Lader with additional production from Mike Mogis, who you may know from his work on... nearly every album saddle creek has ever released. The trailer itself appears to be more of the 70's Sci-Fi imagery that's grown ever present on The Strokes promotional material and videos. Gone are the days of the dirty New Yorkers hanging out in dive bars and shit-talkin' with Slash, it seems.



Meanwhile, it's also been announced that The Strokes have started thinking about considering work on a new album and they've written A new song. Strangely lackadaisical for a band once praised for their work ethic, but hey, not everyone can be Kings of Leon.
