"The Madden brothers are back with a whole new batch of
the infectious pop they're famous for. The first single, Like It's Her Birthday,
is already flooding the commercial airwaves and the good news for loyal fans is
that it's just one track in a stream of head-bobbing party-starters." -

"If there's one thing you can rely on
with Good Charlotte, it's that their songs will be catchy

Good Charlotte have just released their fifth
studio album, Cardiology. This follows the album's infectious first single 'Like
It's Her Birthday' which has already surpassed gold sales, peaking at #7 on the
national ARIA singles chart and is still currently top 25. The killer video, lensed
by Josh Forbes (Barenaked Ladies, The Fray), sees the band celebrating, well,
Like It's Her Birthday - check it out HERE.
The
band's follow up single, 'Sex On The Radio' has just been released to Australian
airwaves and has already been added across stations nationally. 'Sex On The Radio'
is available digitally now.
Announced recently, Good Charlotte
return to Australian shores to perform at the next Debit MasterCard Priceless
Music Series concert held at Sydney's iconic Luna Park inside The Big Top on Thursday,
18 November, 2010. Visit www.mastercard.com.au/music and pre-register for an alert
before 9th November 2010. This will be Good Charlotte's only Australian live performance
for 2010 so don't miss out.
In a new initiative via Posse,
Good Charlotte's passionate fanbase are able to take hold of the band's music
marketing via Posse.com where they can hook their friends up with signed copies
of "Cardiology" and earn a $3.50 commission on every sale. Australia
is one of the band's most successful territories and fans are expected to rush
to the site to become involved. The fan who promotes and sells the most copies
of the album will attend a special meet and greet with the band when they visit
Australia in November.
It's a very simple process, fans should
visit www.posse.com and grab banners or links to "Cardiology" to post
online. When their friends click through they'll get exclusive signed copies of
the album and limited edition tattoos free with their purchase. For further details
on this promotion, head to http://www.posse.com/c/good_charlotte.
Good
Charlotte are multiplatinum superstars and Cardiology might just be their best
album yet. Recorded with longtime producer Don Gilmore (Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne),
Cardiology comes almost exactly a decade after the release of the group's self-titled
debut.
From the synth-driven party anthem "Last Night"
to slower, more sensitive tracks like "1979" and "Harlow's Song
(Can't Dream Without You)," Cardiology masterfully weaves Good Charlotte's
diverse musical influences into a fresh, highly personal reflection on the nature
of love.
"Obviously we're all in different places in our lives but
we're giving our fans that same honesty we always have," says Joel Madden.
"I get the same feeling of excitement listening to this record that I did
when we first started making music."
"One of the
things I'm proudest of about this band is that we don't have two records that
sound alike and I think that's helped keep us around," adds Benji Madden.
"I think there are some elements on this record that will remind people of
our first album and then there are some elements that will remind them of Good
Morning Revival, too."
Cardiology follows 2007's Good
Morning Revival, which debuted in the Top 10 in 13 countries, including Australia
(#5) and is their highest selling album in Australia to date. Fans who purchase
Cardiology on iTunes will receive two bonus tracks 'Crash' and 'Catherine (Damn
This Situation)'.
