The Strokes - their career in NME covers

The Strokes were back in the mag in March 2002, just after the Brits, when we ran a piece entitled "The Strokes shine at dull industry bash". They'd performed 'Last Nite' and we spoke to Julian Casablancas about the UK's love for the band. "England's got this special place in my heart" he said in the issue, "if it wasn't for everyone over here, I'd still be working in a bar."
