Discover the magic of Room on Fire, the second studio album by the renowned American indie rock band, The Strokes. Released in October 2003, this album is a significant follow-up to their debut, Is This It, and features hit singles like “12:51”, “Reptilia”, and “The End Has No End”. Initially produced by Grammy-winning producer Nigel Godrich, the band opted for a more authentic sound by returning to their original producer, Gordon Raphael, after feeling the initial recordings lacked soul.
With its slightly smoother sound, Room on Fire showcases a more refined approach, where the bass guitar plays a pivotal role at key moments. The album title is inspired by a line from “Reptilia”: “The room is on fire as she’s fixing her hair.” Upon its release, it garnered positive The Strokes Room on Fire reviews, reaching number two on the UK Albums Chart and debuting at number four on the U.S. Billboard 200. By October 2006, it had sold over 597,000 units and achieved Gold certification.
