The New Abnormal is the long awaited new album from The Strokes, and the band's first album in seven years. The album was announced with the first track and video, "At The Door." The New Abnormal is The Strokes' sixth studio album and was recorded at Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, California, with producer Rick Rubin. The album's cover artwork is a painting called 'Bird on Money,' by famed artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. The Strokes are singer Julian Casablancas, guitarists Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond Jr, bassist Nikolai Fraiture and drummer Fabrizio Moretti. Review: Their best album yet ! - Where to start ?. When you make the most brilliant and 'Perfect' debut album, as these guys did, surely the only way is down ?. I've liked all the Strokes albums since 'Is this it', they've all been at least good, but obviously always in the shadow of their timeless debut. The New Abnormal is the sound of a rejuvenated band doing what they want and continuing to head into new directions with their sound. Julian Casablancas, really pushes himself into new territory here with some outstanding vocals, flipping from his trademark New York style drawl to a falsettos and back. The epic synth sounds that sound like they're belong on a motion picture soundtrack. Everything just sounds incredible on this album and grabs your attention immediately. You can dance, tap your feet and wallow here. There's a song for every mood across these 9 songs taking you a rollercoaster of styles. The slower tracks that didn't grab me so much at first are now actually my favourite songs on the album. The album closers - 'Not the same anymore' and 'Ode to the mets' are powerful, haunting and epic slowburn tracks that linger with you long after. I'm floored by this album, and just how any band after 20 years can still be this good and still evolving !. This is my favourite album by the Strokes, yes , even above 'Is this it'. Stunning Review: Abnormality - A bit of an abnormality for the Strokes but after a listening on vinyl i have a new respect for the Strokes of today.. recommended!

めっちゃHi-Fiにした1stアルバムみたいな感じ
タイトルが全てなんですが、曲はシングルノートのリフの多用みたいな初期っぽさもあって悪くないと思うんですが、音質に物凄く張りがあって、これが逆に1stの頃のlo-fiで気だるい雰囲気のストロークスが好きな人には絶対嫌がられると思います。 わたくしは普通のボリュームで聴いてもちょっとイマイチかなーと言った感じでピンと来なかったんですが、とりあえずクラブよりはちょいちっちゃいかな？ぐらいの家全体が揺れる音量で聴いたらめちゃ気に入りました。 イヤホンとかヘッドフォン、ちっちゃいスピーカーやご近所に優しい音量で聴いても悪くはないと思うんですが、そういうアルバムじゃない気がします。 アナログ盤を購入したのでCDは分かんないんですが、こちらは透明なスリーブにでかいタイトル入りのテープで封がしてあり、開封の為には剥がすか切断する必要があります。細かい所にこだわるコレクターは2枚買う必要がありますが、なんかそういう人を小馬鹿にした感じの作りにニヤけました。 わたくしもどうやって開けようかと少しだけ悩み、でも俺コレクターじゃねえや、と思い出して即座にナイフを入れました。 中には海外サイズでそこら辺じゃ額縁売ってない大きめのリバーシブルなポスターと、最近のアナログが得意とするMP3のダウンロードコードが入っていました。 アーティストやアルバムによってはボートラのダウンロード用だったりするのですが、こちらはアルバム本編まるごとでした。 わたくしは機材が揃っているので変換できるとは言え、針の走る音とかを編集で削るのはなかなか難儀な作業なのでこれは個人的に物凄くありがたかったです。 しかしこのダウンロードコードは前述の通り、作品ごとに落とせる内容が違うので、本作の内容とは関係ないですがアルバム丸ごと〜ってはっきり明記してくれると買いやすいですね。
