New Album "Jamtarts in the Jakehouse" out March 3rd!

The Bitter Tears' debut album "The Grinning Corpse Who Went To Town" available now at itunes.com!

"...Thank God for the creative, uber-feisty cabaret edge on this local band's country-fried rock 'n' roll" - Chicago Tribune, Feb.11th, 2008

Punk Planet 71, December 2005 "Chicago’s got a new contender. Brought up by sideshow gypsy warriors, acid-folk progressives, and genius Broadway composers, this group of strapping gentleman are out of the gates and elevated onto some next level shit. Orchestrated in madness, wits, and a sense of humor, I’m placing all my bets on the Bitter Tears." (BM)



T-Shirts available. $18 in the U.S. Send a message if you are interested. We have Brown, Black, Blue, and Violet shirts of random quantities.
