Me and a little group of people I made friends with in line asked Julian about his spider tattoo and like what the deal was with it. He said “Well my lady got a web tattoo, too.” and someone asked if it was for spiderman or? and he said “No, it’s like I’m the spider and she’s my home…”

Today I interviewed Julian Casablancas + The Voidz and it was a blast. Lots of baseball talk. Look for it soon!

someone asked me to make a little something of Julian Casablancas. So I put a Halloween spin on it. Spoopy skeletons.

Suffice it to say, he is out here doing what he’s doing because it makes him happy.

He kicks the ball my way. I kick it back. And then we all pile into two cars to go eat chili and talk about movies and vegetarianism and “The Piña Colada Song”—anything besides his own music or Casablancas himself.

At the end of the meal, I buy. By way of response, Casablancas leads the Voidz in a spirited and deeply embarrassing serenade of “For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow.” (x)

IT'S STREAMING YAAAALL

"I really regret not following my heart for [Phrazes For The Young]," he said over the phone from his home in New York. "In my head, I was like, ‘Do I want to do a weirder thing?’ But I thought it would’ve been swept under the rug, so I went the opposite way." As it happened, "Phrazes for the Young" — an underrated electro-pop jaunt — was swept under the rug anyway; it sold fewer copies than any Strokes album, including last year’s "Comedown Machine," roundly criticized as a careless fulfillment of the band’s contract with RCA Records.

So Casablancas, 36, was determined to stick to his guns for his first effort with the Voidz, whose members include players he’d originally recruited for solo shows. The aggressive sound, he said, reflects his lifelong love of punk bands like Black Flag and his more recent examination of “modern classical music and weird jazz.” And the lyrics channel his sense of outrage that began growing during George W. Bush’s presidency, which Casablancas called “a wake-up zone.”
