Data Insight

No writing credits for this album have been published yet. The Strokes have used three different arrangements across their catalogue, one writer, two writers and the band as a whole, so there is nothing to infer from the previous records. The columns are left empty until a source carries them.

Reality Awaits is The Strokes' seventh album, released in July 2026 on RCA and Cult with Rick Rubin producing again. It reached number 13 on the Billboard 200 and number eight in the UK, and "Going Shopping" was the lead single.
