“I do it for myself in front of the audience, so it’s also for the audience,” says Cerebral Ballzy frontman Honor Titus as he explains why he performs his Beat-inspired poetry at the band’s gigs. “It’s like someone jerking off on webcam, yeah they’re doing it for themselves, but it’s on webcam for whoever’s watching it too.”
Cerebral Ballzy’s new album Jaded & Faded is out this week on Cult Records. Check them out on tour in Europe and the UK over the next few months.
