Smitten is an album released by The Martinis in 2004, under the label, Cooking Vinyl. It is often regarded as similar sounding to the work by alt-rock band, the Pixies, as the guitarist, Joey Santiago is a member of both bands. The record also features drums by Josh Freese, a member of The Vandals and A Perfect Circle. The album took over two years to create as Santiago and Linda Mallari, husband and wife, had a baby and were apparently very attentive parents.
