Formada en 1998, han recopilat 3 discos i han fet grans marxes perquè bandes adolescents surtin del garage. Els crítics insisteixen en cridar-los "Els salvadors del Indie Rock" encara que pel que sembla això fa enutjar àdhuc més a The Strokes. thumb|The Stroke

A number of members have embarked on a variety of side projects, though they regrouped for a fifth album, titled Comedown Machine, released on March 26, 2013. They have sold over 5 million albums. They are one of the many indie rock bands to hail from the US at the dawn of the 21st century and helped augment the garage rock revival movement.

  • The Strokes (pronounced "Treasure Planet: The Soundtrack") are an American garage band formed in 1999 in New York City. They are also known world-wide for their asshole-ic fashion sense. The Strokes are made of five zombie-faced, greasy men who are the object of many a-girl's wet dreams. The Strokes came to form as a sin-loving fag group in a state juvenile facility, all having broken sodomy and bestiality laws within southeastern states. Realizing that their release date would never come,ringleader Jack Cutter decided to turn the tables and climb high above the dreary walls. Monsieur Cutter took on the alias Julian Casablancas and commissioned a gaggle of thuggish, barely legal man-whores, most of whom hailed from the state of Arkansas and rechristened them with exotic-sounding names and fascinating, but not believable, back stories. Neal Ficks of St. Petersburg, FLA thus became Nikolai Fraiture of St. Petersburg, Russia while the unfortunately named Fannie Man of Little Rock was christened Fabrizio Moretti of Lake Como, Italy. Bunk mates and banjo players Al Hartey and Nookie Vinny decided they wanted a piece of the action too: thus, Albert Hammond Jr and Nick Valensi were born, their finger-pickin' banjos replaced by Les Pauls and skinny ties. They boys called themselves The Strikes and decided that since time won't save their souls, this would be their last nite in juvie. Agreeing to meet in the bathroom at 12:51, the Strikes pushed the flowers in the window and stole away, like pieces of driftwood floating underwater. Taking the last train, they robbed a convenient store and set the room on fire, but not before gang leader, Julian Casablancas robbed 29 different people (only 7 that he liked). Mistaking the Nevada police men for New York City cop, Casablancas screamed that they weren't too smart and the Strikes were immediately arrested. In court, the judge claimed that because the Strikes were barely legal, charges would not be pressed and that they would be sent back to juvie. "Is this it?" Julian asked. The judge assumed that Julian and the Strikes had been dead high while on their rampage but Casablancas shook his head. "I'm Sober and still alive," he is quoted as saying. When asked why he had committed the crime if he was, indeed, not coming down, Julian answered simply: "It's hard to explain." Back in Juvie, Casablancas suffered from manic depression caused by either life in The Modern Age or Courtney Love. The Modern Age proving bearable, many blamed Love's love. In other news, Nikolai Fraiture was released after a Slideshow of his activity proved he *had calmed down indefinitely*. Mild fame followed: he was recently voted as the most energetic person ever to exist by a poll of blind lepers in southern Albania.
