Selling A Vibe Lyrics & Tracklist - The Cribs

The Cribs‘ new album Selling A Vibe drops on January 9, 2026, via Play It Again Sam (PIAS). It’s their ninth studio album and first in five years since Night Network, mostly recorded in Brooklyn with producer Patrick Wimberly (known for work with Solange, MGMT, and Lil Yachty), who helped lean into their pop side while keeping that raw indie energy. The 12-track project feels personal and brother-focused, written after the Jarman siblings reconnected without the usual band pressure, touching on family bonds, self-reflection, and ditching some old punk guilt for bigger melodies.

The tracklist includes: 1. Dark Luck, 2. Selling A Vibe, 3. A Point Too Hard To Make, 4. Never The Same, 5. Summer Seizures (lead single, out since August 2025), 6. Looking For The Wrong Guy, 7. If Our Paths Never Crossed, 8. Self Respect, 9. You’ll Tell Me Anything (partly recorded with Gordon Raphael), 10. Rose Mist, 11. Distractions, 12. Brothers Won’t Break. Pre-orders are live for vinyl, CD, cassette, and deluxe bundles with extras like signed posters, cologne cards, and merch. Distribution is through PIAS for physicals and standard digital platforms.

Singles like Summer Seizures, A Point Too Hard To Make, and the recent Never The Same have been building hype, with early reviews calling it a confident return full of swagger and heart. They’ve got UK headline dates in March 2026 and some instore shows around release—check their site for tickets if you’re in the UK. Solid comeback if you like their classic sound with a fresh polish.
