Reason to Believe

Hardcore fans and newcomers alike, know first hand that punk bands come and go, but Pennywise is forever. As they enter their third decade as a band, the Hermosa Beach, Southern California 4-piece proudly unleash a brand new 14-track, Cameron Webb produced studio album, entitled 'Reason to Beleive'. 

Pennywise formed in 1988, when punk couldn't be less popular and hair bands were a sign o' the times, and quickly developed a style entirely their own -- a tsunami of California hardcore, melodic surf punk and optimistic anthems that went against the seek-and-destroy ethos of its era. On 'Reason To Beleive', the boys come out swinging, harder than ever. 

"This album isn't the same old Pennywise," says lead singer Jim Lindberg. "It's more hardcore and more metal. Cameron Webb, who produced Social Distortion and Motorhead, really kept us in check. Webb would tell us just to fucking quit arguing and move on. He told us when we sucked and he pushed us hard and it really shows on the record." While songs like "Die for You" (a tribute to brotherhood) is vintage Pennywise, hardcore thrash tracks like "As Long As We Can," "One Reason" and "Something to Live For" from the album will also quench the thirst of their new legions of fans with their "don't-take-shit-from-anyone" attitude.

'Reason to Beleive' comes in a limited edition digipack with a pull out poster and features an exclusive New Zealand & Australia only bonus track entitled "Next in Line".
