Smiling Assassin announce debut album ‘Plight Of The Millennial’

SMILING ASSASSIN have announced their debut album!

Titled Plight Of The Millennial, the upcoming album from the Yorkshire-based punk band is their debut full-length effort and is scheduled to be released in May this year, via self-release.

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist George Garnett says, “with this album we’re trying to put a breath of fresh air into the modern punk scene and shed light on the real issues and difficulties our generation face today…”

Bassist Casey Stead adds, Plight Of The Millennial is a call-to-arms for a disenchanted, disillusioned, and frustrated generation. It delivers bursts of angst and cynical social commentary in a climate where people are more than happy to reduce serious issues to the realm of memes, or witty banter, for the sake of a cheap laugh. As modern hardcore seems to be becoming more insular, POTM subverts the trend. Listening to this record is like seeing the world through the eyes of a rebellious youth, and concluding: ‘shit’s just worse than ever’.”
