throughout the whole interview you can see everyone’s faces light up when they remember something fond of the process and it just feels so human. rick really brings out the best in artists.
I wondered why I loved the production on this album so much and then I found out it was done by Rick Rubin and it made so much sense. What an amazing record, I'm obsessed with The Strokes now and it couldn't have happened at a better time.
the way that they all said goodbye to Rick really made it seem like they were all kids in school talking to their best and favorite teacher from the year before
what the strokes would play in mideval times: Jules: vocals. I know, shocking Nick: hurdy gurdy Albert: a flute (recorder) Nikolai: a bagpipe. I guess, i dunno Fab: literally just rocks
After watching this I've concluded that the guys you would want at your dinner party are Fabrizio and Albert; the guy you would want to smoke a joint with is Jules; the one most likely to try to kiss your girlfriend at a bar is Nick, and the one most likely to apologise for him is Nickolai.
i feel like julian has dozen of smart robots around his house he asks these weird spacey existential questions and listens tothem and nods "uhm" "aham"
Or imagine him asking Alexa the same type of philosophy questions when he's just walking randomly through his house? It would probably confuse the shit out of that. It might even explode. Lol.😂
I just feel like saying, maybe you should check out Eckhart Tolle. Listen to some of his talks. You might find them interesting. I just felt like saying this. Hope you don't mind. Take it easy and Take care.
Loved these episodes. Seeing the guys be themselves aside from their musician positions as a band is amazing. Also, I loved hearing Rick's perspective.
It’s amazing to hear that the opening track was created while just jamming together. There’s something magical about being together and just playing in the same room. It’s a magic that simply can’t happen writing separately. When I think of The New Abnormal album, The Adults Are Talking is the first track that comes to mind and I don’t think the record would be the same without that amazing opening track. Cheers to you all being together and creating incredible sounds.
About global consciousness, and Julian question at the end, i believe the human race is a seven billion (and counting) head hydra, with roots that mesh together. I believe Jung writes about that. Deep beneath our consciousness layers, the layers on unconscious are shared between humans (and maybe other living beings?) like we share some deep roots.
The time of the release helped A LOT it’s solidified as one of the best covid albums and even the vibe and lyrics on the album is something so new and it’s almost like they planned it. I heard once that This album was Billie Ellish’s favorite album and that comes from listening to it a lot from covid same here for me
Holy shit this 4pt producers series was fantastic I still want more of the other videos where you guys continue talking about things you don't know about. Because honestly you keep us alive!
The Adults Are Talking is one of the best songs by The Strokes now, same with Ode to the Mets & Why Are Sundays Depressing... this album comes in third place after the first 2 LPs now... "an agenda for awesomeness" hope there's more to come
40:55: "We were compared to the Fall and Television, we never listened to them" I shared a thin wall in the music building in NYC with the Strokes 1998-2001, my band were very influenced by The Fall and Television, & I always thought our guitar lines were very similar (meaning: They ripped us off! ). We never made it, they did. Their songs were much better anyway. Not to mention Pavement were very influenced by the Fall, and Pavement were very popular in NYC in the 90's, so The Strokes probably listened to them.
I don't actually know why.. but I used to think that this intro is kind of.. strange? and doesn't suit at all the atmosphere of the podcasts.. Kind of disturbing maybe? Honestly don't know why. But nooow. I think it just wasn't habitual. After like 7 episodes I've started loving it so much. No doubt, I love it. This song in the beginning.. and the visuals are prepossesing. They're warm and associate with something homey. They don't feel cheesy (insincere) or anything like this. That's the real Strokes. This nitro is natural and.. well, gorgeous. Good job, Johnny Chew!
What's funny about their conversation on shared consciousness that we aren't aware of, Eddie VanHalen said the same thing about his playing/writing, said none of that was actually coming from him, it all just came through him, that those ideas were just out there floating to be pulled from thin air and happened to land on him.
I read The Unconsoled. It was cool. But um, I've never seen Julian blink so much x) Also Julian is cute with his questions. It's like he goes off on a tangent and wants to get deep but it never really gets there. lol. Reminds me of myself. Anyway, I always enjoy these videos. Cheers
I wonder, does Julian realize how little time most people spend being conscious. I don't know why life is this way but it's like we're forced to be stressed all the time for the stupidest reasons.
I really wanna know what has gotten Julian's attention. He keeps looking on the other side constantly. p.s. Julian really has a different outlook or a perspective on things. Somewhat unique if you'll say. These guys are fascinating. Also I can't help but wonder if Alex Turner is watching this.😄😄🤘🏻 Love The Strokes;❤️❤️
Sunny Rawat I think he just had interview questions he wrote down and had something to drink 🤷🏽♀️ either way I appreciate these videos from an amazing band ❤️ wonderful distraction for these crazy times
“I have a crazy silly over the top poetic abstract question” yes we know Julian
He kind of threw off the flow with those questions.
@@scovell7 I loved it though hahaha... you could tell that he valued his mind in a philosophical way and it was important to him to ask him that question
" am I a prisoner to instincts, or do my thoughts live as free like board to a dock "
Jules be low key grumpy in this one
Everybody gangsta till Jules starts throwing philosophical questions
Fucking Joe Rogan over here
Truee haha
he honestly makes me think more than school lol love him
His MIND
what minute is it
Fab would be the hype guy “this guy rocks with his rocks.” He’s the sweetest.
Watching these has slowly made him my favorite member.
Yepp
He's brazillian, what's not to like
He’s so hot.
@@joshcater we live under the equator line
The Adults are Talking is one of their best songs. Hard to believe it came out of jamming.
Is it?
@@patrickwickett1787 It’s what they said my dude. 👍
that song and why are sundays so depressing + ode to the mets ✨
That explains why they always start jamming towards the end while performing it live. Such a cool song.
It's definitely up there, but some of their early stuff is better imo.
Nick is so polite and grateful to the producers omg. He is so nice. Fav stroke hands down
Yes!!! He’s been so nice and polite in all their episodes.
You can't have a favourite stroke. Stroke is a very terrible experience. Also strokes can't have names
I personally like Fab a bit more but i guess it's different strokes for different folks

THIS
yes fab , please
He can talk shit about Julian for half of his shows
Videos please, fab
Yeeeees

So true 🥲
Rick is magical and you can tell they all genuinely enjoy being with him
Rick: says anything
Band: "cool"
😂 😂 well.. It’s Santa 🎅 😅
*Chris Farley voice*
Awesome
You can tell that Rick Rubin just loves what he does. That is really cool. My life goal is finding that thing.
Right? It just comes throughout so vividly his pure love for life
Can't believe they got Santa as a guest
xdd
😂😂
Hahahahaha 😜
Gonna show this to Santa deniers
Cause it's Xmas season, dude
their smiles at 33:14 when rick tells them his son loves their album :,) love it
rick must be praised by every strokes fan.
he really gave the band a new energy and brought them back to life
He's like someone who took an abandoned classic car and restored it to its former glory.
disagree. new abnormal is their worst album. some great tracks but it's not as good as angles and comedown machine
@@danielgray8053insane take
😂 comedown machine?! I assume this is sarcasm.
I feel like we've finally reached the final boss.
Nice to see these homies still together after 23 years
@stonks dude. how many alt accounts are you gonna promote your damn song with? i see these comments everywhere.
Please don't be the last episode :c
Only the end of season 1
I hope so
I feel like this every episode
Sadly, it was the last episode :( I keep coming back and rewatching them
god nikolai's the sweetest human on earth
The New Abnormal is the only reason 2020 is a little better.
More facts please Fab

Agreee
Dude same, I somehow just rediscovered them with this new album and I’ve been hooked since
Jules is talking like he just got his mind opened by a senior seminar philosophy class, and I’m weirdly here for it
Well said! Jules has a very fresh mind, like that of a 19 year old having his mind blown for the first time
He has an active mind. Most people atrophy and close up after college
15:23 aww they still want to be together as a band even if they go back to ancient times
They'd be a "rock" band even in ancient times lol
That’s actually so sweet
@@notfound6581 yes especially after Albert also mentioned that they (him and Fab) hope to stay together as a band in the future as well.

Switch jules with nick
Totally
🤣
I would get so emotionally overstimulated and awkward smoking a joint with Jules too trippy
swap nick and jules sounds more accurate
julian has the whole frame of his camera and still just on the edge of its view lol
17:49 He said it guys
He said it he said it
They were so happy 💜
I love that Jules asks philosophical questions, they should do more series together I loved it
Jules always makes my brain glitch, please never stop
@Charis Shin broo lmfao 💀 but same tho
omg i love the Petty talk. you can tell these dudes truly love music and each other. thank you for being a band
Jules’ mind is everything
Agreed
Yeah but what animal would you be? Rick Rubin in the house and that’s what’s asked 🥴

They won the Grammy. Shout out. These are amazing. The way they released it. Everything about this album is BEAUTIFUL to experience. Joy to the world
We got this way too quick I can't believe it's real
X2
*the strokes. I hope you guys never stop making these, as well as your music cause id probably get a stroke and die due to sadness!!* 😭😭😭

They've got wifi at the North Pole wow
Christmas Magic 🤯
Fuck , im laughing so haaard 😂
4:26 so glad rick did that
THE ADULTS ARE TALKING
I'm in minutes 17 or so and I already felt philosophically enlightened
please keep making these we need a season 2 guys
i appreciate what julian is doing by having conversations with great socio-economic minds, really looking forward to more of his/their insight ✨
Nice show guys, it makes a fan feel more conected and know better the band
JULES ON FIRE IS BACK
just gonna say this before i even get into the video- Fab is SOOOO funny :)
Omg yes!
He’s blunt in the most hilarious way
@@teayah TIA?
Loved these episodes. Seeing the guys be themselves aside from their musician positions as a band is amazing. Also, I loved hearing Rick's perspective.
One of the coolest intros ever.
totally agree
julian definitely watches adam curtis documentaries lol
I hope there will be more of the strokes just talking and hanging out like a podcast. This was a great episode
Two within a week ?! the strokes are saving 2020
Only good thing to happen in 2020
i really hope they make season 2 in 2021 :(((
they r. it says on their insta :DD
They will :)

Take a shot every time Julian blinks
Lmaooo I realized that too why does he blink so much
“You blink way too much”
as opposed to the Last Nite music video where he doesn't blink at all
I do that when i have anxiety.. what do you think
I’d like to have a heartbeat thank you
15:26 Fab: we’ll still be a band
The Modern Age ❌
The Stone Age ⭕️
This is way better than any podcast.
for Julian's question at 34:29 maybe read the work of Whitehead "process and reality" and about the absolute spirit of Hegel. they touch on this theme
This album is an absolute masterpiece..thanks Ze Strokes, Rick and the gods of music
Watching this video high and Jules hit us with the weird abstract over the top question and now I’m questioning my entire existence
Jules got us thinking more than school with his philosophical questions
Yaaass
Its so nice to see my fav band just chilling with the producers, we dont get to see that much with the press interviews. Love from Brazil
hopefully they bring this podcast back for the next album or something, I just enjoy it too much and cant see it just fade away into non exístanse

We need a concert!!! Even if it was just posted on UA-cam or live streamed it would be great... long live the strokes

BRUH 16:20 They reached out to Rubin in 2012, before comedown machine!
Julian has mentioned before that he was in contact with Rubin as far back as his Phrazes album.

I thought Casablancas has been sober for like 15 years.
I like that they say the end at the end
Stunned that Rick didn’t give julian his spirit animal. He 100% turns into a pelican when he’s alone at shangri la
