This could be a glimpse of what's to come in the band's world tour, which starts in June. Their seventh album, Reality Awaits, is expected to be released on June 26, 2026.
"Reality Awaits, a new fragrance by the subconscious longing of humanity for justice," a voice actor said over a video for a fake fragrance commercial. A man and woman hug then the camera zooms in on a statue. It looks similar to the Statue of Liberty, but there is a sword in one hand and a scale in the other.
The video promoted their album release date. "This message is approved by The Strokes," captioned the post.
