The Strokes<\/a> have released their latest new wave-y single from their forthcoming album The New Abnormal<\/em>, due out April 10th.<\/p>\n

The track, \u201cBrooklyn Bridge to Chorus,\u201d sees lead singer Julian Casablancas meditating on memories, from old friends to the \u201cEighties bands\u201d of his youth. He wants to form new relationships but finds it difficult to make those bonds from the ground up: \u201cI want new friends, but they don\u2019t want me\/They\u2019re making plans while I watch TV.\u201d On the bridge, Casablancas references his ex-wife and former Strokes assistant manager Juliet Joslin; the two divorced last year.<\/p>\n

The New Abnormal<\/em> will be the Strokes\u2019 sixth studio album, and their first in seven years, following 2013\u2019s Comedown Machine<\/em>. The band has released two prior singles, \u201cBad Decisions\u201d<\/a> and \u201cAt the Door,\u201d both of which they premiered<\/a> during a high-profile performance<\/a> at a Bernie Sanders<\/a> rally in Durham, New Hampshire.<\/p>\n

The concert, which followed a rally that included speeches from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Dr. Cornel West, helped raise more than $100,000 for the Sanders presidential campaign, according to Vanity Fair<\/em><\/a>. It also attracted controversy over Casablancas\u2019 interaction with a police officer onstage during the song \u201cNew York City Cops.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was not on our setlist,\u201d Casablancas told Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a>. \u201cThe cops had turned the lights on, so we were like, \u2018Let\u2019s just play \u201cNew York City Cops,\u201d then, as a farewell.\u2019 One of them grabbed my arm. I was like, \u2018Oh, damn, am I about to get arrested right now?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
