The Strokes announce the release of their first new album in seven years, The New Abnormal, on April 10, 2020 via Cult/RCA. The band debuted the first new song and Mike Burakoff-directed video, “At The Door,” during their performance at Senator Bernie Sanders’ University of New Hampshire rally last night. Listen to “At The Door” HERE and watch the video HERE. The band, who rang in the new year with a massive hometown show at New York’s Barclay’s Center, will hit the UK later this month for a very special show at London’s Roundhouse on February 19.

The New Abnormal is The Strokes’ sixth studio album and was recorded at Shangri-La Studios in Malibu and produced by Rick Rubin.

The album’s cover artwork is a painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Bird on Money.
