I believe the album is about depression, and the band members battles with anxiety, depression, addiction. The album is best listened to in order, because they wrote it as a progression of their feelings and how they dealt with these issues.
@amyavery87464 жыл бұрын
The album began with the song Get Up which is about Eric bass and his battle with clinical depression and yes the rest of it came from addiction and other problems that BrentSMITH and Eric bass battle

There is a great documentary video on KZbin that explains what this album is all about start to finish and how it came to be and it started with the fact that Brent wrote the song get up about Eric which is where it all started if you type in Brent Smith dedicated get up to that's where it starts he'll explain how the album became a a story album

I stumbled upon Shinedown on KZbin just like I stumbled onto your site. It's lucky for me I did. I became an instant fan of Shine Down. They have so many incredible songs you should check out. ENEMIES is a great video...super funny. THROUGH THE GHOST... Hauntingly beautiful {no pun intended} lol They are wordsmiths with their lyrics, writing about sensitive issues and then masterfully executed into brilliant songs. Brent Smith has one amazing voice to be reckoned with! Thank you so much for not constantly stopping the video. It's enough watching your face and expressions to tell me everything you feel about the song and then a pleasure to hear your thoughts afterwards. I will happily follow you now because I appreciate the way you view the videos. I stopped watching reactions because it was a little too much 'yap yap' throughout the entire song.

TheNeoEnigma I think there are some really good songs on both threat to survival and attention attention, it was mainly cut the cord that I don’t like off threat to survival. The lyrics are great it’s just the sound of the song overall I don’t like. And there’s a few off of attention attention I’m not super fond of but I don’t hate any of them. If you haven’t already you should also check out the Smith and Meyers sessions, they’re all acoustic covers of other bands songs, and they sound great!

But anyways you can never go wrong with any of their music bc they have a lot of variety. They have really hard stuff Like Sound of madness and Devil! Also some upbeat rock like “State of my Head” or “cut the cord”! And they have some with the most amazing messages like Monsters,Get Up and Second Chance! They are my favorite so please dig deeper I promise they are a band worth your time not just musically but also on a personal level all these men are just beautiful human beings🖤🤍🤟🏽⚠️⚠️⚠️🤍🖤🤟🏽

Threat to Survival is just that, fighting back: Cut the Cord, State of my head, How did you love Attention, Attention I've just started listening to but it slots right in after Sound of Madness as far as the sound, vibe, and rawness.
