Wheres Howie - 22nd Century CD Cover

22nd Century

22nd century on Eastern European compilation CD

What the Media are saying about 22nd Century:

“The bands three members, Duane Chaos, Tim Plommer and Zippy Pinhead, have really merged their musical direction. The songwriting is really strong in Teenage Underwear Model and California as well as the title track, Where’s Howie.  When I first heard U Generation it reminded me of The Who’s earlier live performances. It is a song that basically kicks you in the face from start to finish”.

Eddy Bugnut, Bugnut Records

"This band could be the next Foo Fighters! They sort of sit in that pocket of Green Day/Foo Fighters and crank out high energy, honest rock!"
Doug Manson

"22nd Century...makes up one complete juggernaut firing off on all cylinders... a high energy fun CD to listen to and it never gets old because it sounds fresh, loud!"

MuzikReviews.com

"Tim Plommer (guitar/vocals), Duane Chaos (bass/vocals) and Zippy Pinhead (drums/percussion) deliver a full-fledged musical smackdown with their self-titled release. Gut busting guitar, thundering bass and powerful percussion set the stage for Plommer’s angst laden vocals that are one part pissed off punk and one part grunge master general."
Froglix, 2009

"Good song(s)...well produced...memorable"
The SongCritic.com

"22nd Century’s hard punching and sometimes comical style is a mixture of Ramones style power punk with a healthy dose of 1990’s grunge."
The Association of Rock and Roll Podcasts

"Tim can shred a guitar,
Duane is solid on the
bass and Zippy is nothing
but professional on the kit."
The Auralkinetic, Fall 2009

“Take a riff-driven band with an impressive low-end churn, backed up by mayhem-educing percussion delivered by Zippy Pinhead, and there is no denying the catchy, arena ready hooks that this band effortlessly cranks out……22nd Century is simply a no frills, straight up rock band whose songs are tailor made for popular rock radio.”
Bridgette Oliver, infamousguitar.com (October 15th, 2009)

"Their debut CD was produced by legendary music producer John Webster (Aerosmith, Cher, The Cult) and has garnered attention, including honorable mention in Billboard’s 2009 song writing contest."
IndieZine, Dec 2009
