Devour Lyrics

05.02.2008

Take it and take it and take it and take it all
Take is and take it and take it until you take us all
Smash it and crash it and thrash it and trash it
You know they’re only toys
Try it you’ll like it don’t hide it don’t fight it, just let it out
Steal and shoot it and kill it or take another route
Take it and take it and take it
You know they’re only toys

Devour Devour
Suffocate you own empire
Devour Devour
It’s your final hour

Devour Devour
Stolen like a foreign soul
Devour Devour
What a way to go!

You want it you want it you want it
Well here it is
Everything everything everything
Isn’t so primitive

Take it and take it and take it and take it and take it all
Nobody nobody wants to feel like this
Nobody nobody wants to live like this
Nobody nobody wants a war like this

Diving down
Round and round

NEW UPDATE FROM BRENT

04.25.2008

I'm going to try and make these updates more regular to keep you up to speed on all that's going on. We're in the midst of picking our album cover and locking in dates for shooting our video for Devour...which you will be hearing very soon. It goes to radio on May 5th and I think you'll be able to buy it that day or the next day on itunes. Right now we're in a rehearsal space tightening up the set list for the shows that start in Jacksonville on May 9th. I should say I'm sorry for making you all wait this long for the new album, but I can't! All I can tell you is that it will be worth the wait. Remember you guys are the boss.
- all my love,
Brent

Shinedown Update from Brent

04.11.2008

Hi everyone.

It's been awhile since I've posted, but I wanted to reach out to all of the Shinedown fans myself and let you know what's going on firsthand. We just heard about Jasin's recent troubles in Jacksonville, and our thoughts and prayers are with him. A lot has happened this past year and there have been some changes within the band that we've been meaning to tell you about. I love Jasin like a brother, we all do - he'll always be family and we hope all of the best for him, but, at this time, he's no longer with us in Shinedown. This all went down awhile ago, and I'm sorry to break this news today. I realize that this isn't the best timing, but with stuff like this, there really isn't ever a good time. We just felt like we couldn't wait any longer and had to let you all know. We've brought an old friend into SD - Nick Perri. Nick's an amazing guitarist and we've known him forever from our days on the road with Silvertide (many of you were probably at those shows and remember him too). We also have a new bass player - Eric Bass. Just a fantastic musician and all around great guy - we can't wait for you to meet him. And you will very soon - we're hitting the road next month. I'm also happy to report that the new album is finished and we're so excited to share it with all of you. Its called The Sound Of Madness and will be out this summer. Please stay tuned to the website and radio stations out there... the first song is coming soon. Lastly, I just want to thank you again for all of your support. You're the best fans in the world and the reason we're even here. Without you, there is no Shinedown. Don't ever forget that - we definitely don't.

Brent
