"The performance featured some particularly dazzling lighting; though the band was often submerged in darkness, each member had their own set of lasers circling around them. It resulted in a straight line of rotating lasers on stage, with Julian Casablancas crooning in his signature sunglasses at the center. Even with autotune, Casablancas had his work cut out for him on "Falling Out of Love," with both choruses featuring some extensive falsetto moments; though he was a bit shaky from time to time, Casablancas and the band sounded locked in."
"The Strokes are set to release their new album, Reality Awaits, on June 26th. So far, they've revealed lead single "Going Shopping" and this week's "Falling Out of Love." The Strokes will embark on a massive headlining tour in support of the album. They'll also headline numerous festivals this year, including Bonnaroo, Minnesota Yacht Club, Outside Lands, Just Like Heaven, Summer Sonic, Shaky Knees, Sea.Hear.Now, and more."

The Strokes performed a debut rendition of their new song “Falling Out of Love” on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The stage featured striking lighting, with the band frequently submerged in darkness while each member had lasers circling around them. The visuals formed a straight line of rotating lasers, centered on Julian Casablancas in his signature sunglasses. Casablancas delivered vocals with autotune support, including extensive falsetto moments in both choruses. The performance sounded coordinated despite occasional shakiness. The band also announced their upcoming album Reality Awaits, releasing June 26, and shared lead single “Going Shopping” along with “Falling Out of Love.” They planned a large headlining tour and multiple festival appearances in 2026, with dates listed across several cities.
