About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Shinedown is the latest rock combo to be signed out of Florida (in this case, Jacksonville) since the popular explosion of Creed and, to a point, Limp Bizkit. Shinedown has much more in common with the former on its Atlantic debut, Leave a Whisper -- in fact, there's little on the album that doesn't have something in common with another group that listeners have heard before. The layered harmonies of Alice in Chains dominate the set, which musically is cousin to post-grunge types like Saliva and Puddle of Mudd. Brent Smith's vocals fall somewhere between Glenn Danzig and Layne Staley. He also channels Aaron Lewis for a little of that heavy band balladry on "Better Version" (sample lyrics: ."..Caught a glimpse, but the reflection's only mine"; "It's almost like I'm paralyzed"). Elsewhere, chunky guitar riffs establish Shinedown as a capable hard rock band. "Left Out" and "In Memory"'s thundering power chords fade to chorus-channel dynamics in the verse, making room for more blustery lyricisms about personal pain, relationship woes, and other "boy, is life sucky" stuff -- essentially, the same set of issues that seemingly all of these post-grunge rockers rant about. Coupled with a two-dimensional sound (sound number one: heavy! Sound number two: brooding!) which varies little from song to song, let alone from the sound of its peers, Shinedown's debut offers some hope that heavy music will right itself from the nasty stumble of its last few years. [The album's bonus track edition featured acoustic and multimedia material.] Johnny Loftus, All Music Guide

October 27, 2005: If were stranded on a desert island, I'd want John Locke to keep me safe and this CD to keep my ears happy. It is going to go down in rock history as one of the best. I got it after hearing "Fly From the Inside" on the radio - I took that as my own personal theme song. "45" and "Burning Bright" are the kinds of songs that make me stop whatever I'm doing so I can really listen. The lyrics speak of pain, suffering, redemption and are flawlessly delivered by Brent Smith. I have recommended this CD to at least 50 people. If you like real rock, not prepackaged garbage, then buy this CD. I'm buying the new release today and I'm sure I won't be disappointed!

July 23, 2005: My headline holds true. When you get tired of listening to the growling, screaming, whining, and the grunting of modern rock, listen to this album. The whole album is worth listening to. I like the line in "fly from the inside" where they say "I can't escape the pain, I can't controll the rain, sometimes I think that I'm gonna go insane. I'm not against what's right, I'm not for what's wrong, i just make my way then I'm gone". Their cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Simple Man" is great to listen to also. Help them make a profit to make more great music by buying the cd.
