Blacklisters unveil first track from new album Adult

Leeds-based bruisers Blacklisters have earned a reputation as a formidable live act through aggressive, confrontational performances riddled with dark humour, drawing comparisons to The Jesus Lizard and Pissed Jeans. Over the past few years, the quartet have deservedly earned their reputation as one of the UK’s most confrontational and aggressive live acts.

‘Cash Cow’ is the first song to be revealed from their upcoming album Adult.

‘We, Blacklisters have finally written a song so commercially viable, that money will literally fall out of the sky and into our eyes,’ frontman Billy Mason-Wood states.

Adult, their forthcoming second album was recorded at Suburban Home Studios in Leeds with producer Matt Johnson, aka MJ of Hookworms. The album is a clear progression for the band, and demonstrates a growing confidence in their song writing and performance, from the abstract art-noise to the unrelenting, brutally minimalist riffs that first put them on the radar.

Adult, will be released on Smalltown America (home of Jetplane Landing, USA Nails, Axis Of, Carnivores…) this Autumn on all formats including special edition vinyl.
