BREAKING NEWS


This morning, customs officials raided a small warehouse in the Philippines where they found over a dozen Philipino boys (aged 6 to 9) recording tracks for the upcoming Strokes release. In press conference shortly following this announcement, Sony Records stated that they had decided to shift the guitar parts overseas to help lower costs.

“As you get older, your hands get thicker, meatier almost” stated the Sony spokesperson. “The guitar tracks end up sounding like they’re being played with hot dogs...like a man with hot dog fingers. We’d lost a lot of money in post-production trying to get rid of that sound.”

“While this is the first time we’ve recorded the guitar parts there, the lyrics have always been written by Philipino children.”

Early reviews of the album have been surprisingly positive.
