New York, NY - April 23, 2013 - Today The So So Glos release their new album Blowout. Blowout is out on the band's own Shea Stadium Records, and produced by longtime friend and Shea Stadium owner/collaborator Adam Reich and engineer/producer Kyle "Slick" Johnson.

This week Rolling Stone named The So So Glos a Band to Watch<http://www.rollingstone.com/music/videos/band-to-watch-the-so-so-glos-20130422#ixzz2RCb35t5K>, calling Blowout "refreshing....a tight and well-crafted [record], with the guys name-checking 1960s Brill Building songwriters and Iggy Pop in equal measure. The album's themes, on the other hand, are decidedly modern, chronicling 21st-century struggles with identity and technology in an earnest way."



In their exclusive premiere of the new album, Spin calls it "Storming, gritty...a prickly take on salt-of-the-Earth punk rock." The album can be heard in its entirety this week HERE<http://www.spin.com/articles/so-so-glos-blowout-new-album-stream-interview/>. To purchase the album on iTunes PRESS HERE<https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/blowout/id611289413>.



And oh boy there's more! This Friday, April 26, the boys are taking on the Late Show With David Letterman, performing "Son Of An American" for their television debut.

"There's a comforting reliability about Brooklyn punk heroes, The So So Glos. Their dedication to their home turf is reminiscent of music scenes past like Manchester's Factory Records or Bruce Springsteen's New Jersey worship...taking things back to the Minor Threat era of all ages punk rock." -

"[The So So Glos are] all bluesy Mats trash with a glint of glam and and a finish-your-PBR guitar solo thrown into the mix."

"...Lead singer Alex Levine leaped into the crowd and was caught by his fans, who lifted him like a fallen deity before dropping him into the pit, where he danced a while, microphone in hand; then he jumped back on stage for the chorus..."Best show ever," somebody shouted. But it wasn't a show, man-it was a raucous fucking party."

The Brooklyn-bred So So Glos are  also heading out on the road with Titus Andronicus for a string of April and May dates for the "Bring Back The Dudes Tour 2013." The bromance started in 2009, when the two bands first hooked up for the "Bring On The Dudes Tour." The guys will trek out across the East Coast and Midwest, with select dates in Canada. See below for full details.

The foursome, consisting of Alex Levine (vocals, bass), Ryan Levine (guitar, vocals), Matt Elkin (guitars, vocals), and Zach Staggers (drums, vocals), have been kicking ass and guitars together since they were five years old. Yes, FIVE. DIY til you die!
