Legendary rocker and former Kyuss / Fu Manchu member BRANT BJORK has announced he will release a new album this summer and has shared the following details.

Mankind Woman‘ will arrive from Heavy Psych Sounds Records on September 14th. The recording took place in March 2018 at Zainaland, a creative Villa owned by Brant’s wife Zaina Alwan, in the California desert town of Twentynine Palms. The record was recorded and engineered by Yosef Sanborn who also owns and operates Massive FX pedals in Los Angeles.

This is the first record to see Brant closely collaborate with a producer and co-writer: his Low Desert Punk Band guitarist and friend, Bubba Dupree.
