Cerebral Ballzy Debuts Jaded & Faded June 17th
CEREBRAL BALLZY will release their highly anticipated sophomore studio album Jaded & Faded on June 17. Produced by David Sitek and mixed by David Kahne, the melodic punk album is due this summer on Julian Casablancas’ Cult Records. The Brooklyn-based band is fronted by Honor Titus, who recently appeared on the cover of NME alongside Casablancas. Julian has said that Cerebral Ballzy is “the coolest band in the world at the moment, a truly legit modern hardcore/punk band, and by far my favorite.” He added, “It’s beyond exciting to try and help them in any and all ways we can and we’re honored to put their deliriously great new record out on Cult Records.” Today, The AV Club premiered “Be Your Toy” from the album and the track is also available to stream via Soundcloud.
Jaded & Faded is available now for pre-order and fans that place advance orders of the album on iTunes will receive an automatic download of tracks “Lonely As America” and “Better in Leather.”
Limited signed editions of Jaded & Faded and two bundle packages will be made available for purchase on the Cult Records online store. Regular bundles will include a signed Jaded & Faded LP and CEREBRAL BALLZY UNIF shirt. Super bundles will include all content offered in the regular bundle plus a “Better In Leather” / “Speed Wobbles” 7-inch and a “Better in Leather” / “Speed Wobbles” Cassette.
Cerebral Ballzy just opened for The Strokes’ comeback show last Saturday, May 31st at The Capital Theatre, Port Chester, and finished a U.S. tour with OFF!. They will be joining OFF! along with Fucked Up this summer for UK & European shows. All upcoming dates are listed below.
