Julian Casablancas Album Put Back

Strokes singer Julian Casablancas has been forced to push back the release date for his new album 'Phrazes For The Young'.

Julian Casablancas is one of the main songwriting talents in The Strokes. His doe eyed stance made him a powerful frontman but it was his expressive command of lyrics that elevated the New Yorkers above their peers.

When the band went on a break in 2006 it was widely presumed that Casablancas would start a solo career. However when his fellow Strokes began releasing new material the singer was strangely quiet.

A collaboration with Pharrell Williams and Santigold followed, before Julian Casablancas struck out on his own.

Recruiting several friends the singer retired to the recording studio where he began crafting new material. Details have been scarce on the ground, with Julian Casablancas so far only confirming the name of the project - 'Phrazes For The Young'.

Julian Casablancas recently previewed one track from the album. Titled '11th Dimension' the singer streamed the song online, delighting fans with their first taste of the forthcoming solo album.

Now, however, fans will have to wait just a little bit longer to hear 'Phrazes For The Young'. Due out this month, the album will instead be released on November 2nd.

Julian Casablancas is set to play a North American tour soon, with a series of solo shows in Britain set to follow later this year.

Julian Casablancas is due to release 'Phrazes For The Young' on November 2nd. Tracklisting is as follows:

'Out Of The Blue'
'Left & Right In The Dark'
'11th Dimension'
'4 Chords Of The Apocalypse'
'Ludlow St'
'River Of Brakelights'
'Glass'
'Tourist'
