After playing 350 shows internationally during their World Domination Tour with such bands as DIO, W.A.S.P., QUEENSRŸCHE, DORO and LORDI in support of their last album, World Domination, Fatal Smile spent over a year writing and recording songs for the follow-up effort. 21st Century Freaks was recorded in the tour buses, hotel rooms and studios all over the world before eleven songs were singled out and re-recorded during 2011.

Ten top names tried out for the mixing job, all mixing the song planned as the second single of the album. The band put together a jury of friends to pick out their favorite mix, which turned out to be mix No. 5, not knowing it was mixed by Fatal Smile's own drummer Philty and guitarist Mr. Y.

This time the band have done everything on their own to make it the ultimate Fatal Smile album, from recording and engineering to producing and mixing the album and the result is massive, with 'in-your-face' songs and a 'larger-than-life' sound!'

The first single and video, 'Welcome To The Freakshow', will be released in Europe in April. The video is directed by Owe Lingwall famous for his work with KAMELOT, MESHUGGAH, THE RASMUS, etc.
