Julian Casablancas goes solo – Phrazes For The Young

Nikolai Frature did it with Nickel Eye. Albert Hammond Jr. has already released two solo records. Now it’s Julian’s turn (and it’s about bloody time). Over the last year, Julian Casablancas (The Strokes), aka my hero, has been working on his first solo album Phrazes For The Young, and all we know so far is that this 8 song LP includes songs titled “River of Brake Lights,” “Glass” and “Ludlow St.” Here’s a preview for the album that plays like a movie trailer. Excited? Hell yes I am. Check out Julian’s new website for any new info on the album.
