The Pretty Reckless released a new music video for the song Messed Up World (F’d Up World), which already has over 3 million views. The video for Heaven Knows has over 10.5 million views.
Going to Hell debuted at #5 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart when it was released on March 18th.  The release has garnered praise from press and fans alike.  Rolling Stone raved, “This New York band’s brash second album rages with the upbeat, beat-wise humor that hard rock has suppressed ever since grunge. ‘Heaven Knows’ and ‘Why’d You Bring a Shotgun to the Party’ are full-on glam stomps.”
Formed in 2009, The Pretty Reckless released their debut album Light Me Up in 2010 with a follow-up EP HIT Me Like A Man in 2012. The band has supported Guns N’ Roses, Marilyn Manson, and Evanescence on tour in addition to headline runs in both the U.S. and abroad.
