SMASH INTO PIECES truly makes modern rock, combining the phenomenal vocal and lyrical depth of Chris Adam Hedman Sörbye with the aggressive yet melodic guitar attacks from Benjamin Jennebo and Per Bergquist, and the hard hitting combination of bassist Viktor Vidlund and drummer Isak Snow.
The band reached the semifinal of the Swedish version of “Sweden got talent” in 2009 but dropped out of the competition to sign a record deal with Ninetone Records. Things however really didn’t work out as planned and the collaboration with the label came to a end after just one released single “Fading” – a song still gaining a great deal of attention and airplay, especially from the leading rock radio station Bandit 106.3.
The band picked up superb feedback from their hugely energetic live shows and in a short amount of time the band had the pleasure of sharing stage with among others Dead By April, Twisted Sisters, Teddybears Sthm, Raised Fists, Mustasch, Treat and many more.
Their first full length international album release came in 2013 with Unbreakable. Further headline tours of Sweden, Finland and the other Nordic countries followed along with support tours of the rest of Europe with Amaranthe
The second album The Apocalypse DJ was released in 2015 and another extensive tour cycle continued alongside. For the first time the band were able to complete a full headline Europe wide tour.
The third album is due for release at some point in 2016 but there has been no confirmed date at this point. The band announced that Isak Snow had left the band on 1st April 2016. Most people thinking this was a joke of some sort awaited further news. The band announced on the 6th of April that there was a new drummer that had joined the band. The only name given at this stage has shown that The Apocalypse DJ has descended and joined the band. No other information is known at this stage.
SMASH INTO PIECES is a must – and will definitely thrive in a larger setting – their sound much definitive says arena. Together, their talent and chemistry will not be ignored or denied.
Here to Stay
Smash Into Pieces Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like i always do,
Dreaming of the times we had, just me and you,
Never want the dreams to have their end,
It's breaking my heart seeing you this way,
But shadows holding you won't make me go away, no,
I'm here to stay,
That got away,
Left me here,
Here to stay,
The life we had is gone,
My babe is moving on,
Leaving me here,
You left me here to stay,
I made my mistakes,
Looked the other way,
I was sure the sun would shine like yesterday,
Never heard the things you had to say,
But now its to late,
Now there's nothing left,
That could stop this lonelyness,
This pain, this heart,
From aching me apart,
You are the one,
That got away,
Left me here,
Here to stay,
The life we had is gone,
My babe is moving on,
Leaving me here,
You are the one,
That got away,
Left me here,
Here to stay,
The life we had is gone,
My babe is moving on,
Leaving me here,
And I'm thinking of the times we had,
It makes me sad,
That i lost something so dear to me,
I'll always be a dreamer,
Dreaming of a new tomorrow,
Where we've found our way,
You are the one,
That got away,
You left me here to stay,
You got away,
Left me here, here to stay,
The life we had is gone,
My baby is moving on,
You leaving me here,
You are the one,
That got away,
Left me here, here to stay,
The life we had is gone,
My baby is moving on,
You leaving me here,
You are the one,
The one that got away you left me here to stay,
The one that got away,
I am here to stay,
You are the one that got away,
Left me here,
Here to stay,
You are the one that got away,
Left me here,
Here to stay
