The Strokes Have Two More Going Solo

Just when we got all excited about The Strokes getting back at it in 2009, here comes a report this morning saying that may not be the case...yet.

According to Rolling Stone, drummer Fabrizio Moretti and bassist Nikolai Fraiture, have gone in their own directions with Moretti forming a side project called Little Joy with Rodrigo Amarante from Los Hermanos.  Look for the record this fall on Rough Trade.

Fraiture's new endeavor is called Nickel Eye with an album titled The Time of the Assassins. Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Regina Spektor guest on the project.
