'ATTENTION ATTENTION': Shinedown to Celebrate New Album at Release Party

Shinedown is releasing their sixth studio album ATTENTION ATTENTION on May 4th, but the band is celebrating early during their intimate iHeartRadio Album Release Party, where they will be performing their new music live. Fans can tune in to a free live stream of the show on Thursday, May 3rd.

ATTENTION ATTENTION follows Shinedown's 2015 album Threat to Survival, and includes 14 new songs, including its lead single "DEVIL." Shinedown's new LP was partly inspired by a darkness experienced by frontman Brent Smith while on the road in support of the band's last album. Brent explained, "I’ve had to battle certain situations, when it comes to substance abuse and addiction. That reared its ugly head. I basically had fallen from grace, because I’m not perfect. I had to pull myself together and build myself back up. I wouldn’t have been able to do that if it wasn’t for these three other gentlemen. So, I wrote about it all. This is probably the most truthful thing I’ve done in the last decade. I have a tattoo on the top of my lefthand that says, 'Your pain is a gift.' That’s how I feel. It's what made me who I am."

Smith added, "I want everyone to know we will always go to the next level. There’s no ceiling. We’ll continue to push ourselves not only as musicians, but as songwriters and as people. I feel like this is a record the world needs right now. It’s about celebrating the will we all have inside of us. To me, this band means giving up is not an option. That’s why we never say 'Goodbye'; we say, 'Until next time.'"
