A bit of social and political commentary for ya. How SCARY! ;) At least you moggers can a...

'08 saw the Strokes taking a break form being the Strokes and trying new outfits. Drummer Fabrizio Moretti headed west and found acclaim with his new side-project Little Joy. Bassist Nikolai Fraiture decided to front his own little band called Nickel Eye. But frontman Julian Casablancas has kept a rather low profile.

Now, this doesn't make any sense. For all those anticipating the 7.4.7 release of Michael Bay's Transformers, you've definitely seen lead man Shia LaBeouf sporting a Strokes T-shirt in the explosion-friendly previews. So, you'd think a Strokes song would at least make the Transformers soundtrack, right? Not quite. The Strokes got gypped! Think more along the lines of a bomb-trigger happy set li...
