New Jersey's Own Pop-punkers The Fiendz Return with "Down The Shore" from Forthcoming New Album Dummy (Black Pumpkin Records)
Now, let's just be completely honest here: in an ideal world, who (on The East and/or West Coast) wouldn't wanna be down at the shore over Memorial Day Weekend!!? I mean, I could personally do without all the related traffic, mobs of people, noisy neighbors setting of random fireworks, and hullabaloo, but being down at The Shore—well, the REAL Jersey Shore, Ocean City, NJ—is the best place to be during the summer! So, it makes complete and total sense that New Jersey-based Punk/Pop-punk band The Fiendz just recently unleashed a new song, fittingly titled "Down The Shore." It's the second single from their forthcoming album titled Dummy. Dummy will be the first proper Fiendz's full-length since 2011's Commit to Memory. "Down The Shore" was delivered to radio and released ahead of Memorial Day Weekend just in time for the unofficial "start" of summer!
"Down The Shore" was produced by original Fiendz members Jerry Jones & Joey Darone. Jones shares, "I wrote this song while were all in Lockdown. Just a fun song about wanting to get away. I guess I was trying to write something like The Ramones' "Rockaway Beach.'" Meanwhile, their first single from Dummy, "Skeletons," is still being played all over the world. "Skeletons" got so much airplay that it organically charted in some great areas, like New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Los Aangeles, and all over The UK. Dummy is a new 15-song Fiendz album coming soon on the band's own imprint, Black Pumpkin Records. The Fiendz's live band currently features Jones along with bassist Ted Faltus and drummer Matt DeSomma, while the on-record Dummy line-up consists of Jones playing guitar, bass, and lead/backing vocals, drummer Alan Bruggeman, and long-time member Joey Darone supplying keyboards and backing vocals.
"Down The Shore" was produced by Jones/Darone, mixed by Bill Stevenson (Black Flag, Descendents) at The Blasting Room, assisted by his son, Miles Stevenson (hospital socks, PLASMA CANVAS,) and mastered by Jason Livermore at The Blasting Room. The Fiendz recently hosted a Dummy Listening Party at The Factory Records Lounge including a solo performance by Jerry Jones late last month. "Down The Shore" is a nearly perfect piece of Pop-punk from this newly revitalized Jersey band, who has spent years touring alongside Bill Stevenson's own ALL, The Bouncing Souls, Lifetime, 7Seconds, The Ramones, The Queers, The Ataris, and The Dickies. The Fiendz's "Down The Shore" is now available on streaming services for your listening pleasure. Dummy will be released at an unspecified date on Black Pumpkin Records.
