SHINEDOWN Announce New Studio Album ‘Attention Attention’ Out May 4th

Multiplatinum, record-breaking rock band Shinedown has announced the release of their sixth studio album ATTENTION ATTENTION out May 4^th on Atlantic Records. Lead single “DEVIL” is out now along with the accompanying video. Directed by Bill Yukich (Beyonce, Marilyn Manson, Wiz Khalifa), the visual for “DEVIL” is a dramatic and visceral introduction to ATTENTION ATTENTION. Check out frontman Brent Smith’s first interview about the album with Billboard.

ATTENTION ATTENTION is available for pre-order now at all DSPs and each pre-order will include an instant download of “DEVIL” – PRESS HERE. Deluxe album bundles are available at the official Shinedown webstore HERE, including the limited transparent yellow colored double vinyl, a 3′ x 5′ flag and exclusive “ATTENTION” and “DEVIL” t-shirts. The first 500 Ultimate Vinyl and first 500 Ultimate CD bundle purchasers will receive a signed copy of the album.

The 14-track album, Shinedown‘s most raw and personal to date, is a mental, emotional and physical journey that follows an individual from life’s lowest lows to the highest highs as anxieties dissipate and demons disappear. The ominous album opener and lead single “DEVIL”is a rush of unpredictable rhythms and roaring guitars that sets the stage for what’s to come. The story that unfolds as the album progresses is a powerful and enduring statement about the resolve of the human spirit, our will to overcome struggles, and the importance of respecting and leaning on one another. On “KILL YOUR CONSCIENCE,” a percussive march and a snarling refrain are instigated by the pitfalls of social media. Elsewhere, “GET UP” is an encouraging lyrical ode set to lush piano chords that speaks to struggles with depression. The energized distortion of “THE HUMAN RADIO” is a rousing call to action to keep fighting together for survival and truth. Album closer “BRILLIANT” packs a punch as fears finally evaporate and strength returns. Given the deeply personal nature of the record, Shinedown went in-house for production for the time ever, enlisting bassist Eric Bass to produce and mix the album in its entirety. ATTENTION ATTENTION ushers in Shinedown‘s biggest and boldest chapter yet, as they once again uproot convention and deliver a cinematic and poignant body of work.

Shinedown will be hitting the road for a world tour beginning March 23rd in Deadwood, SD. PRESS HERE for tickets; full routing below.

They began their unparalleled domination of multi-format rock radio with their 2003 platinum-certified debut Leave A Whisper and its gold-selling 2005 follow-up Us and Them. 2008’s Billboard Top 10, double-platinum LP The Sound of Madness remained on the Top 200 Chart for a staggering 120 consecutive weeks and made rock history with six #1 singles including the gold “Devour,” platinum “If You Only Knew,” and the triple-platinum breakthrough “Second Chance,” igniting a mainstream crossover and soaring to #1 at Hot AC and Top 3 at Top 40. The American Music Award-nominated band then seized #1 on the Billboard Top Rock Albums Chart and #4 on the Top 200 with 2012’s gold-certified Amaryllis, which launched three #1 Active Rock anthems – “Bully,” “Unity,” and “Enemies.” Hailed as a fiery and always exciting live act, the band continues to engender diehard love from millions of global fans and has racked up countless sold-out tours and festival headlining sets as well as numerous national television appearances such as The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and TODAY.
