The Strokes lead singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Julian Casablancas has a new solo album coming out in early November called Phrazes for the Young. Early reviews are promising, which warms the cockles of my heart, because I love it when the guys I'm crushing on are sexy and talented.

An informal Sugar HQ poll revealed that when it comes to fantasy rocker guys, we're all over the map! Answers to the question "Which rocker from any era would you hook up with if you could?" yielded icons like Jim Morrison and Jimmy Hendrix to the unexpected (for me, anyway) Lenny Kravitz and Anthony Kiedis.
