Shinedown announces Planet Zero World Tour, releases new song

Album drops Apr 22nd

Ahead of the April 22nd release of their new album Planet Zero, multi-platinum band Shinedown has announced the Planet Zero World Tour, produced by Live Nation, with special guests Jelly Roll and John Harvie, and have also released “The Saints of Violence and Innuendo,” a new song from the forthcoming album.

The Planet Zero World Tour begins in Bonner Springs, KS on September 3rd, kicking off a 20-date US run of fall shows that will see the record-breaking, chart-topping band bring their new music, No. 1 hits, fan favorites and biggest stage show yet to cities from coast to coast in support of Planet Zero. This leg of the Planet Zero World Tour also includes festival performances at Louder Than Life on September 23rd in Louisville, KY and Aftershock on October 9th in Sacramento, CA. Shows include The Revolution’s Live Tour kicking off April 1st with special guests The Pretty Reckless and Diamante, followed by UK and Europe festival sets and select shows with Iron Maiden in June and Canadian dates with special guests Pop Evil and Ayron Jones in July and August.

Tickets are available now via Ticketmaster.

While lead single “Planet Zero” – Shinedown’s record-breaking 18th No. 1 – remains in the top spot at Active Rock Radio for the fourth consecutive week, the band has released album track “The Saints of Violence and Innuendo.” The frenetic yet massively catchy track takes on the platforms and institutions that don’t value honesty and instead use half-truths, false narratives and innuendo to push agendas that are often not reflective of the people’s best interest.

“Planet Zero” and “The Saints of Violence and Innuendo” introduce an album that sees Shinedown taking on the forces that keep us divided at a time when we need to be coming together. These songs warn of the dangerous dehumanizing consequences of cancel culture run rampant-if we shut each other down, we risk losing empathy, respect for one another, and our ability to communicate and unify in a way that leads to actual progress and understanding. Planet Zero is an incisive look at some of society’s most critical issues, including the increasingly toxic division among those of differing ideologies, the need for honesty in our public discourse, and the corrosive effects of social media and cancel culture on mental health and humanity. Part social commentary and part in-depth exploration of the human psyche, there is also hope, triumph, and reminders that we all need one another. After all, it is the band’s impassioned striving for unity that has long been at the heart of their creative output.
