Shinedown Announce New Album, Attention Attention, Release “DEVIL” Video


Shinedown has now confirmed that their sixth studio album, Attention Attention, will be released on May 4th via Atlantic Records. What can fans expect? Singer Brent Smith told Billboard this, “At the beginning of the record, you can feel this intensity and these bold statements that are being made. But as the record progresses, you hear the individual and the record start to shift, and they start to get their confidence back, and they start to understand what’s going on, because they’re having to face emotions that they’ve never really faced before. We call it digging in the dirt mentally. This person has to flush it out. In order to be able to get out of this room and out of this chair and go back into the world, they have to train themselves mentally. They have to accept the fact that it’s not always going to be great. It’s not always going to be exactly the way you want it.

Shinedown also shared their new “DEVIL” video online, along with this statement, “It was all about starting the story off very dramatic. It’s not set in a traditional, quote-unquote music video style. It plays out, even in the four minutes-and-change that the song is, [that] we pack a lot of information into this first song for the viewer, because that was all built by design; we really wanted to make a statement with this video.The colors are very vibrant, the way that the editing is shot and the amount of detail in the story of the song, how much he was able to present, is quite frankly unlike anything I’ve been able to see any director be able to do for the first song you hear. It’s kind of like being a new artist… because I guarantee nobody will have ever seen Shinedown in this capacity.
