The Strokes
Reptilia by The Strokes Live Performance at Lollapalooza
In August 2010, The Strokes were riding high on the waves of their fourth studio album, 'Angles,' which had been released just a few months prior in March. This live performance at Lollapalooza exemplified the band's comeback after a hiatus, showcasing their signature blend of garage rock and refined melodies that fans had missed. During this period, The Strokes were attempting to navigate a changing music landscape and embrace fresh sounds while still holding on to their iconic style. It’s interesting to note that 'Reptilia,' a fan-favorite and one of their most recognizable tracks, had been part of their earlier album, 'First Impressions of Earth,' released in 2006. The energy at Lollapalooza encapsulated a pivotal moment for a band that had shaped the early 2000s music scene, reminding fans why they became such a cornerstone of indie rock.
