On May 2, iHeartMedia presents the iHeartRadio Album Release Party with Shinedown at the iHeartRadio Theater in New York City at 8:00pm ET celebrating ATTENTION ATTENTION. The live event will feature an exclusive Q&A and an intimate performance and will be broadcast to listeners nationwide on iHeartMedia’s Rock radio stations and video stream on iHeartRadio.com/Shinedown on May 3 at 9:00pm local time.
Shinedown’s most personal album to date, ATTENTION ATTENTION is a psychological journey that follows an individual from life’s lowest lows to the highest highs as anxieties dissipate and demons disappear. The story that unfolds as the album progresses is a poignant and enduring statement about humanity and our will to overcome struggles and thrive. PRESS HERE to watch the video for the soaring and anthemic “THE HUMAN RADIO,” which was featured on Spotify’s New Music Friday. While the ominous “DEVIL” sets the stage with an intense wake-up call to accept and face one’s fears, “THE HUMAN RADIO” picks up further into the journey of the album, exploring themes of connectedness, survival and the resolve of the human spirit. Both videos were directed by Bill Yukich (Beyoncé, Marilyn Manson, Wiz Khalifa).
ATTENTION ATTENTION is available for pre-order now at all DSPs and each pre-order will include an instant download of “THE HUMAN RADIO” and lead single “DEVIL” – PRESS HERE.

Given the deeply personal nature of the record, Shinedown went in-house for production for the first time ever, enlisting bassist Eric Bass to produce and mix the album in its entirety. With a symphony of thought-provoking lyrics, stadium-size, explosive guitars, unpredictable rhythms, and cinematic flourishes, ATTENTION ATTENTION ushers in the band’s biggest and boldest chapter yet.
