In the beginning of 2008, Benjamin Jennebo (guitarist), Isak Snow (drummer) and Viktor Vidlund (bassist) formed Smash Into Pieces and was later the same year joined by lead singer, Chris Adam Hedman Sörbye and Guitarist, Per Bergquist. The band immediately started writing songs and it didn’t take long before the band had the material set and got a record deal.
However the partnership with the label came to an abrupt end just after releasing their debut single ”Fading” in the autumn of 2009. Smash Into Pieces now found themselves caught in the middle of a legal conflict, fighting for the rights for their own music. In a way the band had to start from scratch again. The following years Smash Into Pieces worked hard, wrote new songs, toured frequently and regained their momentum. The whole experience made the band stronger and even more determent. Now they have released their sophomore album called “The Apocalypse DJ”. The album includes eleven tracks. With a strong voice and catchy guitar riffs the guys guide you through their album “The Apocalypse DJ”. Some songs include a female vocalist alongside the main vocals. The album has a variety of slow and faster songs, so it never bores when listening to the album. The music of Smash Into Pieces is easy going, it does not pull your fullest attention, but even faded in with the background you will listen to every single note. A beautiful album the Swedes created here. A must listen. Check out Smash Into Pieces if you have never heard of them before. “The Apocalypse DJ” can surely compete with some of the big names the USA has sent out to the world. So keep your eyes and ears open. Smash Into Pieces is coming.
