Sean Lennon and Primus's Les Claypool Announce Album And Share First Tracks

Words: Sam Geary

Sean Lennon has just announced a collaboration with Les Claypool, frontman of Primus, to be known as The Lennon Claypool Delirium.

Their first venture is an album, 'The Monolith Of Phobos', set for release on June 3, with first single 'Mr. Wright' being unveiled today. A planned summer tour will include Beastie Boys' Mark Ramos Nishita and Paul Baldi of the Fungi Band.

"Sean is a musical mutant after my own heart," Claypool said in a press release. "He definitely reflects his genetics - not just the sensibilities of his dad but also the abstract perspective and unique approach of his mother. It makes for a glorious freak stew."
