Description

The Voidz, Casablancas’ band, much like its lead singer, cannot be categorized into a single entity. One avid Reddit user describes their music as “Psychedelic-Arabic-Disco-Trap-House-Rock,” but The Voidz are really something you need to plug your headphones into and experience for yourself—their music is addictively hypnotic, and their third album is no exception.

Casablancas’ name is often synonymous with The Strokes, of course; being the frontman of such an iconic band will do that. However, The Voidz represent the musical evolution Casablancas always envisioned for himself, and comparing the two bands feels somewhat redundant, as they are inherently different. In a conversation that shifts from dissecting the city to reflecting on absurdity, AI art, and the unnecessary act of buying new clothes, the aloof rockstar persona that Casablancas seemingly exudes is brought out of context, revealing a more introspective and modest side. This allows you to truly understand the coolness for which Casablancas has been praised over the past two decades.
