The Glitterati
Global Music are proud to announce the return of The Glitterati with their second studio album, ‘Are You One Of Us?’, due for release April 19th 2010.
Hard-rockers, The Glitterati, first burst onto the scene back in 2003 when they released their debut single ‘Do You Love Yourself?’ which roused a huge amount of interest from the British music press, including a nomination for Best British Newcomer at the Kerrang! Awards.
Their 2005 self-titled debut, released via Atlantic and produced by Mike Clink (Guns’N’Roses, Metallica), received rave reviews and secured the band a loyal fan-base with energetic live performances supporting acts such as Kings Of Leon, The Killers, Jet, Evanescence, David Lee Roth, The Wildhearts, The Datsuns and Simple Plan. The Glitterati also graced the stages of UK Summer Festivals, T in the Park and Download in 2004 and 2005.
In 2009, they began the process of recording their second album, ‘Are You One Of Us?’, with producer Matt Hyde (Gallows, Acroama, Trivium, Slipknot) and signed with, DR2 Records.
The band commented: “We went into this album wanting to make a harder, more aggressive sounding record, whilst retaining the hooks and melodies that have always been an important part of The Glitterati sound.
“It’s been a long time since our first record, we have been through so much just to get to this point; we cant wait for people to hear the new songs and to start making up for lost time.”
The first single ‘Fight Fight Fight’ was released from November 23rd 2009 as a free download and served as an attractive teaser to the UK press and public of the album to come.
2010 will see the The Glitterati back in power, full of swagger and more importantly, full of great songs!
