Last month, GODSMACK<\/strong>—Sully Erna<\/strong> [vocals, guitar], Tony Rombola<\/strong> [guitar], Robbie Merrill<\/strong> [bass], and Shannon Larkin<\/strong> [drums]–released the official music video for \u201cBulletproof.\u201d<\/strong> Directed by filmmaker Troy Smith<\/strong>, the song\u2019s video is a short film that parodies the making of a rock video with cameos from Billy Ray Cyrus<\/strong> and Sebastian Bach<\/strong>. Erna <\/strong>ultimately hires his crazy Italian cousin to direct the video and everything goes wrong. Click here<\/strong><\/a> to watch. In addition, \u201cWhen Legends Rise<\/strong>\u201d\u00a0served as\u00a0a theme song for\u00a0WWE\u2019s \u201cGreatest Royal Rumble\u201d<\/strong> event, which streamed live April 27 on the WWE Network.<\/strong><\/p>\n

WHEN LEGENDS RISE<\/u><\/strong>–recorded at their headquarters (GSHQ<\/strong>) in Derry, New Hampshire <\/strong>and produced by Erik Ron<\/strong> and Sully Erna<\/strong>\u2014has been receiving critical praise worldwide. Included in Loudwire.com<\/a>\u2019s list of \u201c2018\u2019s Best Rock Albums<\/strong>\u2026So Far,\u201d writer Chad Childers proclaims, \u201cThe band is painting with a broader palette and delivering one of their most well-rounded albums to date.<\/strong> The single \u2018Bulletproof\u2019 was ready made for rock radio, while the titular \u2018When Legends Rise\u2019 is the sound of a band brimming with as much vitality as they’ve ever had. The adrenaline-fueled \u2018Take It to the Edge,\u2019 the road-burning rocker \u2018Say My Name\u2019 and the epic, buzz-generating \u2018Under Your Scars\u2019 could all find some time on the airwaves as well. When Legends Rise<\/u> should give Godsmack an uptick in their career\u201d (4\/30\/18). See below for more critical praise.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On the live front, the band is currently headlining various U.S. rock festivals this spring, receiving rave reviews from the fans and critics alike, with The Rock Revival<\/a> declaring, \u201cGodsmack is back with a vengeance, and their explosive live show left nobody disappointed\u201d<\/strong> of their recent Fort Rock Festival set (Johnnie Crow, 5\/4\/18). 20 years after the release of their debut album and 20 million album sales later, GODSMACK<\/strong> are an even stronger animal than before.<\/p>\n

About GODSMACK:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Godsmack stand strong as 21st<\/sup>\u00a0century hard rock titans. With an unbreakable spirit and diehard work ethic evocative of their hometown, the Boston quartet fought hard to secure a place in music history since first smashing their way on to the scene in 1998. To date, they’ve notched a staggering six #1 singles at mainstream rock radio, including “Awake,” “Straight Out of Line,” “Cryin’ Like A Bitch,” and “I Stand Alone.” Moreover, they’ve enjoyed 20 Top 10 hits at the format\u2014the most of any act since February 1999–as well as four Grammy nominations, and were winners of The Billboard Music Awards Rock Artist\u2019s of the Year in 2001. \u00a0Selling over\u00a0<\/strong>20\u00a0million records worldwide, the band has also unleashed three consecutive albums at #1 on the\u00a0Billboard<\/em>\u00a0Top 200\u2014namely\u00a0Faceless<\/em>\u00a0[2003],\u00a0IV<\/em>\u00a0[2006], and\u00a0The Oracle<\/em>[2010]. This places them in league with Van Halen, U2, Metallica, Dave Matthews Band, and Linkin Park who have also enjoyed the same streak. Moreover, the accomplishment on the road remains staggering with headlining sets everywhere from\u00a0Mayhem<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0UPROAR<\/em> to Rock on the Range<\/em>. Godsmack released the successful and acclaimed 1,000 HP <\/em>in 2014, and their domination continues with the release of When Legends Rise,<\/em> their seventh full-length album in 2014. They still stand alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
