SMITHEREENS - 2011 CLEAR Vinyl LP
"Crushing chronic chords with the dyne-rhythm section to fuel it all, are not only still here, but stronger than ever". -No Depression
"Everything in Smithereens' world is like a film noir shot in psychedelic colors. But this New Jersey band has a talent for creating fresh variations that prevent dust or mist from clouding their music. 'Smithereens 2011' reaches a peak with the song that opens the album, the sour-tempered yet utterly transporting 'Sorry.'" -Ken Tucker, NPR
"Wholly satisfying blast of classic Smithereens songcraft and melodicism, colored with Pat DiNizio's impassioned vocals, Jim Babjak's thick-toned, stinging guitar, Dennis Diken's imaginative, powerful drum work and Severo 'The Thrilla' Jornacion's stylish bass. The entire collection sounds like a return to The Smithereens' mid-to-late '80s glory years, both song and performance-wise." -Goldmine Magazine
"And 2011's songs - the songs! - vintage! Picks up where Green Thoughts left off." -Pop Dose

- Sorry
- One Look at You
- A World of Our Own
- Keep on Running
- Rings on Her Fingers
- As Long as You Are Near Me
- Bring Back the One I Love
- Nobody Lives Forever
- Goodnight Goodbye
- All the Same
- Viennese Hangover
- Turn It Around
- What Went Wrong
Label: Sunset BLVD Records
