“Taylor Momsen mourns death, celebrates life and rallies against injustice on The Pretty Reckless’ excellent fourth album Death By Rock And Roll.” – Kerrang!, 4/5
“The Pretty Reckless prevail to deliver a bone-shattering set of songs infused with catharsis and raw emotion.” – Hysteria Magazine, 8.5/10
“This whole album is none other than perfect.” – Rawing In The Pit Media
“Channelling her pain and despair, vocalist Taylor Momsen has excelled in every facet of the album.” – Heavy Magazine, 8.5/10
“Voices like Momsen’s come along so rarely these days; her vocals on this record are some of the best female vocals this side of the 80s, and with lyrics like On my tombstone when I go / just put ‘Death By Rock and Roll, she has cemented her place in history as a queen of rock!” – Spotlight Report, 5/5
“From big rock moves to heartfelt acoustic moments and a splash of country, The Pretty Reckless have found their place, and their soul.” – Loud Online

The album, which follows 2010’s Light Me Up, 2014’s Going to Hell, and 2016’s Who You Selling For, is titled after the first single, which rocketed to No. 1 on the rock charts in the US and held strong for several weeks. It marked the fifth No. 1 single of the band’s career and was heralded by Paper, Loudwire, CNN, Forbes, and more. The band also has the incredible and impressive distinction of being the first female-fronted band to have back-to-back No. 1 singles at the active rock format and the first female-fronted act to have five No.1 singles on the Billboard chart.

“The world has been in such a state of civil unrest,” singer Taylor Momsen. “‘And So It Went’ basically comes from that vision. As a songwriter, I feel like I’m not here to preach. I use music to observe and communicate what I see around me. This song felt like the perfect storm for Tom Morello to join in and rip the sound waves apart with his guitar. It was more than a pleasure having him add his unique and defining sound to the song.”
About working with the band, Morello shares, “I got to perform with Taylor Momsen at the Chris Cornell memorial show. We rocked ‘Loud Love’ and she nailed it — no easy task. Thank goodness she and her band continue to fly the flag for rock ‘n’ roll in a mighty way.”

About THE PRETTY RECKLESS:
The Pretty Reckless formed in New York City during 2008, and the musicians and late producer Kato Khandwala initially made waves with their 2010 debut Light Me Up. After countless gigs, the band returned with Going To Hell in 2014. Not only did the record crash the Top 5 of the Billboard Top 200, but it also ignited three #1 hits —the Platinum-certified Heaven Knows (the biggest rock song of 2014), Fucked Up World, and Follow Me Down— a feat that had not been accomplished by a female-fronted group since The Pretenders in 1984. Meanwhile, their third offering, Who You Selling For, saw them return to #1 on the Mainstream Rock Songs Chart with Take Me Down, which cemented them as “the first band to send its first four singles to #1 on the chart,” according to Billboard. Praise followed from Vogue, Nylon, and more as the quartet lit up television shows such as Letterman and Conan. With over half-a-billion streams, they headlined countless sold out shows and toured with Guns N’ Roses, Soundgarden, and many other heavy hitters. The title track of their fourth album Death By Rock And Roll rocketed to No. 1 on the rock charts and stayed there for multiple weeks. It marked the fifth No. 1 single of the band’s career and was heralded by Paper, Loudwire, CNN, Forbes, and more. The band also has the incredible and impressive distinction of being the first female-fronted band to have back-to-back No. 1 singles at the active rock format and the first female-fronted act to have five No. 1 singles on the Billboard chart.
