The New Abnormal

by The Strokes

The New Abnormal cover art

Produced by Rick Rubin, 'The New Abnormal' expands the band's sonic palette, blending their signature indie-rock guitar interplay with flourishes of 1980s new wave, synth-pop, and disco. The album is distinguished by Julian Casablancas' mature and personal lyricism, and it is widely regarded as a display of renewed musical cohesion for the group. Arriving seven years after their previous album, it was hailed by many as a significant return to form, ultimately earning the band its first Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.
