www.guitarworld.comI don’t have live access to current news right now, but I can summarize what’s publicly known about The Strokes’ track Under Cover of Darkness and how it’s been discussed in recent years.
Direct answer
- There isn’t a single, coherent “latest news” thread about Under Cover of Darkness that has emerged recently; the song originally debuted as the lead single from the 2011 album Angles and has since been discussed mainly in retrospective coverage and catalog updates.
Context and background
- Under Cover of Darkness released in 2011 as the lead single for The Strokes’ fourth album Angles, and was notable for marking the band’s return after a hiatus since First Impressions of Earth (2006).[1][2]
- The track was offered as a free download for a limited window on the band’s site and later released to digital platforms, with accompanying promo and video materials that same month.[3][7][8]
- Over time, coverage has focused on its role in Angles, reception by fans, and the band’s evolving discography rather than ongoing live-news developments specific to the song itself.[2][10]
