Playing Poker With GODSMACK

October 16, 2010

On October 8, Mistress Carrie of the Worcester/Boston, Massachusetts radio station WAAF and some lucky WAAF Army winners went backstage at the Tsongas Arena in Lowell to play poker with the members of GODSMACK. Check out the footage below.

"The Oracle", the fifth album from GODSMACK, sold 117,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 1 on The Billboard 200 chart.

GODSMACK's last album, "IV", opened with 211,000 units back in May 2006 to land at No. 1. This figure was a bit less than the 267,000 units registered by GODSMACK's third CD, "Faceless", back in April 2003, and the 256,000 first-week tally achieved by 2000's "Awake".

Produced by frontman Sully Erna and Dave Fortman, who has worked with MUDVAYNE and EVANESCENCE, among others, "The Oracle" is another lyrical and musical touchstone for the four-member band.

GODSMACK frontman Sully Erna released his debut solo album, titled "Avalon", last month.

GODSMACK is taking part in a North American headlining tour with support from FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH and DROWNING POOL. This is GODSMACK's first full trek in support of "The Oracle".
