The Strokes Unveil New Song "Falling Out of Love" on Colbert

The Strokes stopped by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to give a debut performance of their brand new song, “Falling Out of Love.”

The performance featured some particularly dazzling lighting; though the band was often submerged in darkness, each member had their own set of lasers circling around them. It resulted in a straight line of rotating lasers on stage, with Julian Casablancas crooning in his signature sunglasses at the center. Even with autotune, Casablancas had his work cut out for him on “Falling Out of Love,” with both choruses featuring some extensive falsetto moments; though he was a bit shaky from time to time, Casablancas and the band sounded locked in. Watch their rendition below.
