The video for new single Taken For A Fool is finally here it was directed by Laurent Briet and has some really cool special effects. Also has a lot of footage of the guys messing around and generally being adorable. Nikolai/Julian prom pose? Best thing ever.

The Strokes graced our screen twice in the last week, on March 23rd that played Taken For A Fool on Letterman which definitely goes in my top 5 TV performances and on March 30th they went retro black and white whilst playing You’re So Right.

What a fantastic performance we got last night, hearing Under Cover of Darkness live for the first time was a blast but I have to say Life is Simple In The Moonlight blew me away.

The much anticipated video for Under Cover of Darkness has arrived and I have to say I’m pretty impressed. The Strokes promos can be a bit hit and miss but this is definitely on the ball. The symbolism throughout is a lot of fun for the fans to theorize over and everyone looks great in their formal wear.
