The Strokes bring ‘Threat of Joy’ to Kimmel

The Strokes returned to the telly last night by performing on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

The New Yorkers played ‘Threat of Joy’ from their latest comeback EP ‘Future Present Past’. And looking past Julian Casablancas’ dodgy basketball top, it’s a pristine, fault-free performance.

DIY’s review of ‘Future Present Past’ said “these trio of newbies are worth the fuss,” adding “it’s uncanny, for a band whose sound is as instantaneously recognisable now as at the turn of the millennium, that it all sounds so fresh.”

Watch their Kimmel performance below.
