Cartel Set to Release Third Album

Pop-punk favorites Cartel are set to release their third album, Cycles, on October 20th. The band spent four solid months living together and recording the album, which singer Will Pugh credits for helping them focus and capture the energy of their live performances, something for which the band is well-known. “Let’s Go,” the first single from the album is a spirited, call-to-arms manifesto and the perfect way to announce Cartel’s return. Fans who pre-order Cycles on iTunes will get an instant download of “The Perfect Mistake,” another track off Cycles. Also, pre-order the album here and receive an autographed booklet and exclusive t-shirt! In the meantime, visit Cartel’s sneak peek into their new music video for “Let’s Go,” which will premiere on Buzznet.com on Tuesday, October 13th.

Cartel kicks off a headlining tour with This Providence and The Summer Set on October 22nd in Raleigh, NC. The band will make stops across the country through the end of November. See the full list of dates on the band’s MySpace page.
