From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New Times is the album released in 1994 by Violent Femmes. It was the first Femmes' record not to feature original drummer Victor De Lorenzo on drums, who had been replaced by Guy Hoffman. "Breakin' Up," which was a song Gordon Gano had written years before, was the lead single. Its video received minor airplay on MTV and appears on the band's DVD, Permanent Record - Live & Otherwise. The album did not sell well, but featured many of the Femmes' most musically complex and lyrically inventive songs, including "4 Seasons," and concert staple "I'm Nothing."
