“Every time I dream, you can’t hold me down, ‘Cause none of it is real— I am drowning in paradise.”
With “Paradise” Smash Into Pieces takes another bold step toward their highly anticipated album, set for release in September. The track features the powerful vocals of Elize Ryd (Amaranthe), one of the most celebrated female voices in metal today, adding a dynamic and emotional depth to the song.
Following the album launch, Smash Into Pieces will embark on an extensive US & EU tour. This summer, the band will electrify audiences at over 25 major festivals, including Rock am Ring, Download Festival, and Graspop, among many others.
Swedish alt-rock giants Smash Into Pieces continue their meteoric rise, building on the momentum of their chart-topping hits “Six Feet Under” (double platinum) and “Heroes Are Calling” (Gold-certified within weeks of release). Their futuristic, apocalyptic aesthetic and immersive storytelling—evident in their cinematic ‘ARCADIA WORLD’ series—set them apart in the rock scene, creating a unique fusion of music and visual storytelling.
With over a billion streams and views, the band has solidified its global presence. Their 2023 and 2024 tours saw them perform worldwide, including a major North American tour and headline runs across Europe and Scandinavia. Their groundbreaking Swedish Eurovision performances, with “Six Feet Under” securing #3 in 2023 and another top placement in 2024, cemented their status as one of Sweden’s biggest rock exports.
Their ever-growing fanbase and consistent global radio presence—with 40,000+ spins in 2024 alone—prove that Smash Into Pieces is more than just a band; they are a movement.
With “Paradise,” Smash Into Pieces invites fans to dive even deeper into their world, where dreams and reality blur into an electrifying musical journey.
