Multi-platinum hard rockers Shinedown are back with a pair of new singles, “Three Six Five” and “Dance, Kid, Dance“. These songs serve as a taste of what’s to come with their forthcoming new album, which is expected out this year. Frontman Brent Smith commented:
“We needed to approach everything different this time… The last two albums were both conceptual so it was important for us to really ask ourselves creatively where do we want to go. The answer to that was we want to go everywhere so there was no specific direction. We just started writing, and let the new songs guide us. I also think we stopped saying ‘why?’ and started saying ‘why not?’
When we were thinking about touring, we had certain artists in mind. Instead of being of the mindset that they wouldn’t want to come out to tour with us, we just asked them — and they said yes. Honestly, it’s quite humbling, we are extremely excited for this new chapter, and tour. SO LET’S GO!!!!”
