Shinedown Debuts Lead Single from Newly-Announced Album ‘Planet Zero’

Shinedown has announced their latest album, Planet Zero, which will drop on April 22 via Atlantic Records. The news of the band’s seventh studio recording is accompanied by the lead single and title track, “Planet Zero.” Tackling topics such as cancel culture, social media’s negative impact on mental health and society, not to mention the growing divide among people with differing ideologies, the album is a poignant examination of the world in 2022.

Per a recent Billboard interview with frontman Brent Smith and bassist and producer Eric Bass, Smith notes:

“If we shut each other down and allow ourselves to be divided by the information we consume and the way we talk to each other, we lose our humanity. When you look outside of your phone, you’ll see there are so many people doing good things and trying to take care of each other. But we’re starting to see parts of society slip into an unknown. ‘Planet Zero’ was written for all of us. The fact is that we’re all here on this planet no matter what, so it’s time to actually move forward together with empathy, perseverance and strength. With that said….welcome to PLANET ZERO.”
