Album Description
Available in:
@#%&*! Smilers (pronounced Fucking Smilers) is the seventh studio album by singer-songwriter Aimee Mann. It was released by SuperEgo Records in 2008 (see 2008 in music). Upon the week of its release the album was featured as the Virgin Megastore "Pick of the Week."
The album was produced by Mann's bassist, Paul Bryan, and features guest appearances by singer-songwriter Sean Hayes, who duets with Mann on the track "Ballantines", and author Dave Eggers, who whistles on "Little Tornado".
In addition to the standard CD package, Smilers is available in a limited-edition package with a book-bound cover, a die-cut 32-page book with illustrations by renowned artist Gary Taxali, and held together with metal screw binding. On December 3, 2008 it was announced that this limited-edition package was nominated for a Grammy in the category of "Best Boxed Or Special Limited Edition Package".
A press release for the album is available here.
The title of the album comes from a thread Mann read about 20 years ago on a newsgroup called alt.bitter where someone was complaining about the "fucking smilers" who would approach him at work when he was in a bad mood and try to cheer him up.
