With all that’s transpired so far, how are you? What is the vibe within Shinedown right now? So, say it if you’re one of us, let’s count it down from 10 to one, because I (we) believe you can be whatever.ĪTTENTION ATTENTION has officially been out for 15 months, you’ve toured extensively and have really illuminated the deep messaging within the record. ATTENTION ATTENTION is doing what it sought out to do, and as Smith I discuss the profound impact here, it’s obvious that there’s desire for much more. Now as Shinedown prepares to fire up their engines for tours with Papa Roach and Alter Bridge respectively, they are also deeply thinking about how the lives this record has already touched can multiply. But they linked arms, threw a few instruments and a microphone on their backs and realized – “finding someone you can trust gets results.” They have lived “my monsters are real”, cleared their throats, caught their breath, and at times let their hearts bleed out until there was nothing left. The most sincere component here is that Shinedown embody their mission. I say “break” loosely because he was in Los Angeles about to begin shooting a lengthy music video project that goes along with the band’s sixth studio record, ATTENTION ATTENTION – which has been chart-topping since it’s 2018 release, simultaneously hitting #1 on Billboard’s Alternative, Top Rock and Hard Rock Albums Charts, while spawning #1 Active Rock hit “DEVIL,” and the rousing track “THE HUMAN RADIO”, in addition to “GET UP” and “MONSTERS.”Īnd that was all in phase one of the album run as much of the story is still to unfold. Today, tomorrow and the next… just gotta keep movin’.ĭuring a recent three-week summer tour break, I had the chance to speak with Smith. And like frontman, Brent Smith – my plan B is to not have a plan B. Like Shinedown, I don’t hear a word they say. Sometimes my friends all say I’m going crazy. It’s fair to say nothing about me is ordinary.

And suddenly in a room full of mirrors “I figured it out” … “It’s my day to be brilliant.” It may feel like it takes forever, but you gotta try, …you can pull yourself back together. You erupt because it’s better late than never. You speak up, because no one heard your name (yet). So, you wake up and pull yourself together. It’s never gonna matter if you win first place because we’re all the same. You see, life’s too short to run it like a race. And the voices in your head are legendary. In a room full of mirrors, there’s only one way out. Guess you might say I’m a little intense, but take it from me, you’re not the only one who can’t see straight. I know you’re clinging to the light of day.
As part of their “Atlas Falls” COVID-19 relief effort, Shinedown has also raised more than $400,000 for Direct Relief, one of the largest providers of humanitarian medical resources in the world whose mission is to improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty or emergency situations by mobilizing and providing essential medical resources needed for their care.Photo by: Sanjay Parikh The road to phase two of Shinedown’s most prolific record, with frontman Brent Smith
Additionally, all of Shinedown’s 27 consecutive career singles have reached the Top 5 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs Chart, another unparalleled achievement. Shinedown’s distinct mix of explosive rock ‘n’ roll spirit, thought-provoking lyrics and melodic sensibility on ATTENTION ATTENTION (Atlantic Records) ushered in the band’s biggest and boldest chapter to date.
