Julian Casablancas has another new solo album, “Tyranny,” with his band The Voidz, and you can hear the whole thing in full now.
The Strokes' frontman combined with a new backing band The Voidz (bassist and keyboardist Jacob “Jake” Bercovici, guitarist Amir Yaghmai and guitarist Jeramy “Beardo” Gritter) for this sophomore set; his first solo set “Phrazes for the Young” came out in 2009.
“Tyranny” was teased initially with the two tracks “Human Sadness” and “Where No Eagles Fly.” It hits shelves — physical and digital — on Sept. 23 through Casablancas' own Cult Records.
The Strokes' most recent album, “Comedown Machine,” was released last year; it peaked at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 album sales chart.
Cult Records had another big week this month, as the label released Yeah Yeah Yeahs frontwoman Karen O's solo album “Crush Songs.”
Here is the “Tyranny” tracklist:
1. Take Me in Your Army
2. Crunch Punch
3. M.utually A.ssured D.estruction
4. Human Sadness
5. Where No Eagles Fly
6. Father Electricity
7. Johan Von Bronx
8. Business Dog
