Multi-platinum, record-breaking powerhouse Shinedown have officially released their highly anticipated new album EI8HT today via Atlantic Records, marking another monumental chapter for a band that continues to redefine themselves and what a modern band can be.
In celebration of the release of EI8HT, Shinedown hosted a special global livestream event today at 5:30pm BST featuring an exclusive live Q&A with the band hosted by DJ Rock Feed and broadcast live from Hard Rock Cafe in Tampa, FL.
Fans around the world tuned in across Shinedown’s social platforms and YouTube to hear the band discuss the new album and celebrate the release together. Immediately following the livestream, Shinedown premiered the official music video for their next single, “Young Again,” at 6:30pm BST.
The high-energy song and accompanying video, directed by Andrew Donoho, captures the feeling of playing beneath the streetlights and reflecting on the moments that shape us, reminding listeners that we’ll never be this young again and encouraging them to embrace the present before it becomes a memory.

“Shinedown has made a career of baring their souls in their music. “EI8HT” is another victory, maybe their biggest yet.”- Associated Press
“...EI8HT spans an emotional gauntlet” - Rolling Stone
“Shinedown is possibly one of the hardest-working current bands” - Parade
"EI8HT" doesn't sound like an album they just phoned in to get another hit. It sounds more like a band trying to constantly outdo itself.” - Blabbermouth
Anthemic” may as well be woven into Shinedown’s sonic DNA after 25 years of number one hits and sold-out shows. EI8HT is crafted for moshpit catharsis.”- PopMatters
"EI8HT is the sound of a band doing the opposite of what others would do eight records in. Refusing to stay still or be told what they can or can’t be, EI8HT finds Shinedown overflowing with grand ideas." - Kerrang!
"...it begins hot and doesn't cool down until it finishes 64 minutes later." - Classic Rock
"Channelling as much emotion as electricity, it’s a record that is as quintessentially Shinedown as it gets, as well as being as far-reaching and fantastically bold at the same time." - Rock Sound
"The only thing tighter than the four-piece are the Speedos worn by overweight millionaires on their yachts in Monaco during the F1 Grand Prix." - Powerplay
