Julian Casablancas+The Voidz premiere new video

Julian Casablancas+The Voidz are premiering the video for “Where No Eagles Fly,” from their forthcoming debut album, Tyranny, on Pitchfork. Directed by guitarist Jeramy Gritter, watch the video here.

The band recently premiered album track “Human Sadness” to widespread critical acclaim. Rolling Stone praised the song’s “bombastic stadium rock solos and a hint of the gritty NYC punk Casablancas is best known for,” while Stereogum declared it, “a Julian jamā€¦yet it’s also unlike anything he’s done before.”

In addition to its digital release, Tyranny will be available in multiple physical configurations including cassette, CD and vinyl.  Most notably, Tyranny will also be available as a limited edition lighter sleeve containing the 12-track album as high quality MP3s on a built in USB flash drive. The first of its kind, the lighter sleeve features custom Julian Casablancas+The Voidz artwork and will be available in white, black and yellow.

Written and recorded over the past year, Tyranny features Casablancas and Voidz band members Jeramy Gritter and Amir Yaghmai (Salt & Pepper)ā€”guitar, Jeff Kiteā€”keyboards, Jake Bercoviciā€”bass, Alex Carapetisā€”drums and was produced by Shawn Everett. Please see below for full track listing.

Of the album’s title Casablancas says, “Tyranny has come in many forms throughout history. Now, the good of business is put above anything else, as corporations have become the new ruling body. Most decisions seem to be made like ones of a medieval king: whatever makes profit while ignoring and repressing the truth about whatever suffering it may cause (like pop music, for that matter).”
