Reality Awaits, the first new album from the Strokes in six years, is due out next month. Early singles “Going Shopping” and “Falling Out Of Love” have set off fiery debates within the fan base, partially because of Julian Casablancas’ choice to sing through Auto-Tune. I don’t object to Auto-Tune any more than I object to distortion pedals, but the new songs have not necessarily bolstered my confidence about Reality Awaits.
