Julian Casablancas spoke with New York Magazine about his solo album ‘Phrazes For The Young’, released last year, that The Strokes frontman says wasn’t properly promoted by RCA. “They’re not the label I signed with.

But their collaboration didn’t make it on the final cut. “We’re going to get creative about how that song comes out and where it goes,” Homme explained.
