Today, Boston-based rockers Godsmack have unveiled their latest studio album Lighting Up The Sky, as well as a new music video for their latest single “Soul On Fire” which can be viewed at the bottom of this page.
Co-produced by frontman Sully Erna, and Andrew “Mudrock” Murdock (Avenged Sevenfold, Alice Cooper), Lighting Up The Sky is a testament to powerful storytelling. Erna had this to say about the new record:
“I like when a record takes you on a journey from front to back. I realized there’s a whole story here about one man’s journey, the ups, and downs. I believe it’s a story everyone will connect to, on a human level, because we’ve all gone through things in life.”
The album explores boy-meets-girl, obstacles in relationships, the polarized political climate and the state of the world, betrayal, connection, rebounds, and more. It also gets into the idea of legacy, what we leave behind; fitting for what Erna has noted as their final studio album.
