i gotta say, as much as i love julian’s solo album, i can’t wait for the rest of the guys to be up there backing him up with new strokes material. september come quick!

i swear to god, julian could sing the old testament, put it on record and still move copies. for proof, look no further than to the ridiculous premise behind last years epic “boombox” featuring adam samberg which just got it’s visuals released this past week

b-sides :: julian casablancas “30 minute boyfriend”

cj mckinney — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:49:17 +0000

here’s one of the three b-sides from julian’s solo debut. “30 minute boyfriend” follows the attention deficit disordered electronic formula that composed phrazes for the young‘s makeup.

still unsure on how i feel about phrazes for the young. i’m not sold, i don’t think i’ve listened to it more than a handful of times. here’s to hoping we get a fantasmic strokes LP4 to makeup for it.

video :: julian casablancas live on letterman “out of the blue”

julian definitely brought his game to this performance, in spite of his dismal late night tv debut. I definitely think “out of the blue” makes the transition to a live tv broadcast much better than “11th dimension”

Strokes frontman takes the high-road in his solo music video debut. Casablancas is faced with a series of scenarios that test his will and strength in his pacifist ways. I actually liked it a lot which is something I can’t really say for this song. Definitely one of my least favorites off of Phrazes For The Young.

Julian Casablancas on Fallon :: I Wish It Was Christmas Today

It seems to be just a regular performance from the original SNL cast the classic skit, that is until Julian’s charactered croon kicks in with a little help from The Roots, then the real fun begins. Merry Christmas

Live:: Julian Casablancas in LA 11-02-09 [bootleg]

cj mckinney — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:14:47 +0000

For the many unfortunate people like myself who do not reside anywhere near Los Angeles, Julian’s appearances this month in LA are somewhat of a low-blow to the rabid fan base wanting to catch the new tracks live. While bootlegs normally don’t come anywhere close to recreating the experience of a good live show, sometimes it’s all you got. Here’s a nice rip of Julian’s show in LA from 11/02/09. Enjoy.

Julian Casablancas is playing every Friday in LA over the next month. If you’re anywhere near LA, I’d definitely recommend getting down there to check him out. Last night at The Palace, Julian kicked off the string of shows. Although very little footage has surfaced of the event, heres a solid video of Julian doing The Strokes b-side I’ll Try Anything Once which is actually a demo of First Impressions… kick off track You Only Live Once, enjoy.
