Hit Album Planet Zero Out Now
“Sometimes I’m in a room where I don’t belong
And the house is on fire and there’s no alarm / And the walls are melting too
How ‘bout you?
I’ve never been the favorite / Thought I’d seen it all
‘Till I got my invitation to the lunatic ball / And my friends are coming too
How ‘bout you?”
NEW YORK, NY – February 22, 2023 – Multi-platinum, chart-topping band Shinedown has released their latest music video for new Hot AC single “A Symptom Of Being Human,” a standout track from their critically acclaimed album Planet Zero.
