The Strokes To Meet Up To Discuss Making New Album
Share

Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond Jr has revealed that the band are planning to meet up to discuss making their fourth album.

Hammond Jr, who has recently established a successful solo career, said he was “excited” by the prospect of making another album but denied reports he was to blame for the long hiatus.

The Strokes last record, 'First Impressions Of Earth', was released in 2006 and the band have been off the road since early 2007.

"I'd be very excited to see how things go. We're all in different places right now. So it would be exciting to see where we take the next album to,” he said, in an interview with the Independent.

"We've spoken and now we're going to meet at some point. It's not my choice. Everyone think it's not me getting back because I'm making records, but it's not."

Hammond Jr told Gigwise recently that the band would not release their new album until at least 2009.
