(PR) Brooklyn-based hip-hop duo Junk Science's second album, Gran'dad's Nerve Tonic, hits stores today! Following the release of their critically acclaimed debut album, Feeding Einstein, the guys have taken it up a notch on the new album with the help of fellow Nuclear Family collective members Cool Calm Pete, Iller Than Theirs, and Loer Velocity as well as a bonus remix by Daedelus.The album is pure Junk Science; a clever patchwork of tightly conceptual tracks woven together by the theme of the Tonic itself and the duo's signature, intentionally dusty, lo-fi sound. The duo teamed up with Brooklyn brewery Sixpoint Craft Ales to create a limited-release "GNT" brew to coincide with the release of the album. The beer is available in a limited bottling and on tap in bars and restaurants around NYC.
To promote the new album, Junk Science is hitting the road with Iller Than Theirs until November 15th. For the majority of the tour, the guys will be joining headlining hip-hop legend Del The Funky Homosapien on his 11th Hour Tour. These shows will also feature Del's fellow Hieroglyphics' founder A-Plus, hip-hop veteran Devin the Dude witz the Coughee Brothers, Bukue One, and The Serendipity Project.
