The Smithereens: Smithereens 2011

FIRST ALBUM OF NEW MATERIAL IN 12 YEARS;
SMITHEREENS 2011 OUT APRIL 5

The Smithereens

The Smithereens have confirmed the April 5 release of Smithereens 2011 (eOne Music), their first album of new material in 12 years. Produced by Don Dixon (who helmed Especially For You, the group’s breakout debut), Smithereens 2011 features 13 new tracks and finds the seminal New Jersey rockers picking up right where they left off: with irresistibly catchy hooks and rapturously fuzzed-out guitars.

Eschewing extensive pre-production, the band–lead singer/guitarist Pat DiNizio, guitarist Jim Babjak, drummer Dennis Diken, and bassist Severo “The Thrilla” Jornacion–cut a raw and electric album in the best tradition of Cheap Trick or Big Star that just begs you to roll down the windows and crank up the volume.
