Upon the release of their debut album, Is This It, in 2001, the group was met with much critical acclaim, being hailed by some as the "saviors of rock and roll." NME made Is This It their Album of the Year. Since then, the band has maintained a large fan base, notably in the UK, US and Australia. As of 2007, Is This It has sold over 3.5 million copies worldwide.
They released their second album Room on Fire in October 2003, to good reviews, but to less success commercially, although it still went gold. The album's sound maintained the Strokes' familiar reference points, while also evoking groups such as The Cars, Bob Marley, and Blondie. In the process, they made the cover of Spin Magazine for the second time, with each member receiving his own cover. They also made the cover of Rolling Stone for the first time. Additional media coverage of the band came from the relationship between Moretti and actress Drew Barrymore, which ended in January 2007.
In late September 2005, "Juicebox", the first single from The Strokes then unreleased third album, was leaked online, forcing the single's release date to be advanced. The single was then released as an exclusive on online download services. "Juicebox" became The Strokes' second UK Top 10 hit, as well as their second US Modern Rock Top 10 success. During November and December 2005 the Strokes did a promotional tour for the still unreleased album, which involved doing one-off shows in major cities around the world.
Their third album, First Impressions of Earth, was released in January 2006 to mixed reviews and debuted at number four in the US and number one in the UK, a first for the band. In Japan it went gold within the first week of release. It was also the most downloaded album for two weeks on iTunes. Fraiture claimed that the album was "like a scientific breakthrough". In January 2006, the band then made their second appearance on Saturday Night Live playing "Juicebox" and "You Only Live Once".
The Strokes' frontman Julian Casablancas and guitarist Nick Valensi started writing new material for their band's forthcoming new album in the latter stages of January 2009, which they were set to go in the studio to finalize in February of the same year. In February 2010, Julian Casablancas told NME that the band's fourth album was set to be released in September 2010. The release date has been pushed back again, and the album, titled "Angles" will now be released March 22, 2011 in America. The album's first single, "Under Cover of Darkness" was made available as a free download from the band's website on February 9, 2011 for a 48 hour period.
The Strokes' fifth album is called "Comedown Machine" and was released on March 26th 2013 In North America and March 25th in the U.K. The first single is called "All the Time".
They released their first collection of material after their departure from RCA, the Future Present Past EP, in June 2016 through Casablancas' independent Cult Records label.
Later that decade, the Strokes began working with Rick Rubin on a new album. In April 2020 they released their first studio album in seven years, The New Abnormal, through Cult and RCA. Critics generally considered the album a return to form.

The Strokes Lyrics
Everybody sees me
But it's not that easy
Standing in the life fields
Standing in the light fields
Waiting for some action
Waiting for some action over
Why won't you come over here?
Why won't you come over here?
We've got a city to love
Why won't you come over here?
We've got a city to love
Oh damn good years
?
I know you messed up
When I saw you
You're cold you're so cold
You're so cold you're so cold
Nobody can see me
Everything's too easy
Standing in the life field
Standing in the light field
Waiting for some action
Waiting for some action
She said why won't you come over here?
Why won't you come over here?
We've got a city to love
Why won't you come over here?
We've got a city to love
Oh down the soul
And I said set free
You never chose me
For a while it was nice
But it's time to say goodbye
Cold you're so cold
You're so cold you're so cold
No no no cold
You're so cold you're so cold you're so cold
Oh no no no no cold
You're so cold you're so cold you're so cold
No no you're so cold

Se que todo el tiempo se los dicen, pero ustedes son inigualables, son lo mejor que me pudo pasar en mi corta vida, y se que es muy pronto para decir que los voy a querer por siempre, pero creo que lo hare, adoro sus canciones y sus letras... MIS IDOLOS...

Everybody sees me
But it's not that easy
Standing in the light field
Standing in the light field
Waiting for some action
Waiting for some action over
Why won't you come over here?
Why won't you come over here?
We got a city to love
Why won't you come over here?
We got a city to love
Old time grudges
Will die so slowly
I know you messed up
When I saw you
You're cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
Nobody can see me
Everything's too easy
Standing in the light field
Standing in the light field
Waiting for some action
Waiting for some action she said
“Why won't you come over here?”
Why won't you come over here?
We got a city to love
Why won't you come over here?
We got a city to love
Old time loves don't
Die so swiftly
You never trust me
For a while it was nice
But it's time to say bye
I'm cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
No no no cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
Oh no no no no cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold
You're so cold

Hago esta lyrics en español para quién no sepa xD
Todos me ven
Pero eso no es muy fácil
En pie en un campo iluminado
En pie en un campo iluminado
Esperando por algo de acción
Esperando por algo de acción
¿Por qué no vienes aquí?
¿Por qué no vienes aquí?
Tenemos una ciudad para amar
¿Por qué no vienes aquí?
Tenemos una ciudad para amar
Viejos rencores (o rencores pasados)
Morirán lentamente
Yo sé que tú extrañas la
Manera que te vi
Y fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Nadie puede verme
Todo es muy fácil
En pie en un campo iluminado
En pie en un campo iluminado
Esperando por alguna actriz
Esperando por alguna actriz
Para decir
¿Por qué no vienes aquí?
¿Por qué no vienes aquí?
Tenemos una ciudad para amar
¿Por qué no vienes aquí?
Tenemos una ciudad para amar
Vieja canción de amor
Morirá tan rápidamente
Tú nunca confiaste en mi
Por un momento
Fue agradable
Pero es tiempo para decir adiós
Fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
No no no
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Oh no no no
Fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
Eres tan fría
