Halestorm launch anthemic Back From The Dead single and macabre video

From Loudersound.

Pennsylvania’s finest Halestorm have released a new single and video, Back From The Dead. A typically fierce anthem, Back From The Dead tells a story of recovery and catharsis, and features a macabre video in which band leader Lzzy Hale struggles to escape a hospital gurney.

“Back From the Dead’ is about survival, not in a physical sense, even though I know we all have been touched by death especially these last few years,” says Hale. “This song is personal and written from a mental health perspective. I wanted to give myself and the world a hard rock song we could shout out loud as the gates opened again.

“I was on the edge of this world getting completely lost in oblivion, but even though it was the harder of two choices, I didn’t just let the darkness and depression in my mind dig me an early grave. I didn’t just sit and let it take me. I’ve erased my name from my headstone, so save your prayers, I’m back! I hope this song, as I pass it on to you, reminds you of your strength individually and that you are not alone.”

Back From The Dead is from Halestorm’s as-yet-untitled fifth studio album, the follow-up to 2018’s Vicious, which is due to arrive in 2022.

Halestorm kick off a US tour at the end of this month, before hooking up with Evanescence for a run of co-headline dates in November. They arrive in Europe in February for their intimate “An Evening With…” tour. Full dates below.

Last week, Lzzy Hale appeared on the new single from Slothrust, The Next Curse.
