Love Second Chance, Sound of Madness, Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom) and Unity so I think this should be good too.

I've bought their last two albums (The Sound of Madness is great, Amaryllis is alright), so I'm excited for this. I'm usually big fan of their singles, though they one an era which I don't like/can't get into ("The Crow & The Butterfly" & "I'll Follow You").

I'm glad Shinedown continue with the music. They were among my favs with Nickelback, Hinder and Saving Abel. I just hope they don't stray too much from their core sound. I ike thier harder songs too, but their mellow(as much as you can call a Shinedown song, mellow) songs are the classics for me.

Very excited for this, though admittedly I didn't enjoy the singles from their last album as much as previous efforts. Regardless, they always put out strong music so I can't wait.

Looking forward to new material from them. I'm one of the rare people that like "The Sound of Madness" and "Amaryllis" better than "Us and Them" and "Leave A Whisper."

I get into them with "Devour", so that's probably why. I've never been able to get into their first two albums.

Loved "Sound of Madness" but "Amaryllis" was eh. The drop in quality was like falling off a cliff. Hopefully their next album is better.

Don't know why "Amaryllis" isn't liked that much. Sure, not as good as "The Sound of Madness", but still a very solid record.
Still excited to hear new stuff from them, although I don't think they should try and push 5 singles off this.

Shinedown are one of my Favourite hard Rock bands. These guys, Hinder, Nickelback, TOAD, brought back my faith in Hard Rock . Anyway , I warm up quicker to thier Power ballads and I love the Gothier ones even more.. Thier harder sound is hit or miss for me. WWE loves this band
Save Me: B I Dare You: A This one always gave me a Creed Vibe. Stellar song. Heroes: B- Second Chance: A+ masterpice. I wish we were back in the era where all the hard rock ballads went top 10 on mainstream and HOT AC. The Sound Of Madness: A If You Only Knew: A+ I Own You B The Crow & The Butterfly: A++ So far my Favourite from them. 12 weeks Number 1.
Her Name Is Alice A- Don't know why this one is hardly ever mentioned by die-hard Shinedown fans? I thought is was great. The Gothier style really works with Brent's vocals. Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom): C Bully: C- Unity: A- Enemies: C I'll Follow You: A- Adrenaline: C+ Through The Ghost A Why this one didn't take off is still a mystery. Great music, Great Lyrics. I awlays thought he looked too boy-ish in the video?

Shadows in the Dark is right about Amaryllis...IMO people expected a repeat in quality from Sound of Madness, which was totally unrealistic...people don't understand the concept of a "once-in-a-lifetime" achievement and are too quick to compare everything to the band's best work. Amaryllis is still a fantastic album. The exact same thing happened when Green Day released 21st Century Breakdown. Great album in thr literal sense, but it was automatically a puece of crap because it wasn't as good as American Idiot.

The singles from Amaryllis weren't as good as those from The Sound of Madness, but they were still enjoyable.

Prediction: Shinedown makes a foray into dubstep, and it becomes their first single to miss the Billboard Rock top 5.

Prediction: Shinedown makes a foray into dubstep, and it becomes their first single to miss the Billboard Rock top 5. And despite this, they make an appearance inside the Tropical Latin Top 50.
