Jacksonville, Florida, has enjoyed a long and stirring rock and roll tradition. From the time the seminal guitar crunch of Lynyrd Skynyrd first put this vibrant city on the rock and roll map, J-ville has played an integral role in the on-going evolution of contemporary music. Now a young Jacksonville-based hard rock band named Shinedown appears ready, willing, and more-than-able to add another exciting chapter to their home town's noble rock history book. As proven throughout their debut album, "LEAVE A WHISPER," vocalist Brent Smith, guitarist Jasin Todd, bassist Brad Stewart, and drummer Barry Kerch have fully absorbed influences ranging from the classic sounds of Skynyrd and Led Zeppelin to the soulful stirrings of Otis Redding to the likes of Staind and Tool More... (Submit New Shinedown Lyrics) (Submit New Shinedown Lyrics) The best new hard rock band! | Reviewer: mike ------ About artist/band Shinedown These guys are the most talented and intuitive songwriters and musicians I have heard in years. I like a lot of the new music out there these days but these guys actually have a positive message and substance. It is heavy blues based rock with a real sharp edge to it. The vocalist, Brent Smith is a breath of fresh air to any metalist. This guy can grind his voice like Hetfield but has a real resonance that you don't hear in rock much. Their appeal is so wide range, I am in my 40's and I love all kinds of the new stuff. These guys have the edge of Disturbed but not quite as dark. Thanks for making rock cool again guys! good song | Reviewer: Jockamoe ------ About the song Heroes performed by Shinedown this is one of the best song i have heard in a long time shinedown is very good band. this song reminds me all about mt childhood heroes, i thnk that when every you listen to thsi song it should remind you about yours. Amazing | Reviewer: Topsy Kretts ------ About the song Devour performed by Shinedown After a trip to Iraq, the lead singer wrote these lyrics, describing the experience. This song is absolutely amazing..... if you haven't heard it yet, you're missing out. For those that have, it's headbang heaven! random | Reviewer: Jade ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown This song talks about the ups and downs in life. It doesnt necessarily have to be a depressing song. If you just stop a minute to listen to and annalyze the lyrics you will understand that its just as much about living as it is about dying. Its a constant reminder to me that you just have to take the good in life as well as the bad. Even if the bad out weighs the good it your lifes choices that ultimately decide your fate I'd have to agree... | Reviewer: Mark Jenne ------ About the song Begin Again performed by Shinedown with Mike Hunt on this one. Shinedown not only produces great songs with amazing instrumentals, but also incorporates meaning and thought into their lyrics. And I must be the ass, and raise the question, why are you wasting time leaving comments on lyric pages of bands you don't like? That's not time well spent my friend in this short life we have to live. shindown thank you | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Some Day performed by Shinedown this song is amazing. it has gotten me through so much. it is one of theose songs that are really close to my heart. i love shindown for there songs. cuz a lot of their songs are like that. but this one to me has sooo much meaning. brent smith jason todd all the shinedown crew. if you see this i weant to say thank you so much response to mike | Reviewer: capitalFEAR ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown mike thats sad and im sorry=( hes in a better place now and thats how life works people take years to build their rep and in 1 second its gone i almost did the same thing (run out in front of car though) im sorry again mike ~zero response to all whose friends/family comitted suicide | Reviewer: capitalFEAR ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown mike thats sad and im sorry=( hes in a better place now and thats how life works people take years to build their rep and in 1 second its gone i almost did the same thing (run out in front of car though) im sorry again mike ~zero meaning | Reviewer: mike ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown when i listened to this song it really spoke to me. I had this friend that was this wasy, one moment in his life he was so happy he had everything. Then one day he made a mistake and was never again happy. He was so sad, me and some of my friends tried to help him through, but we could only do so much. So one day when i'm at home doing some homework i got a call, it was my friends mom she told me that her son (my friend) had commited suicide in his room and she found him that morning. It was shocking news to me i was devastated. I had know him since we were in 1ST grade. I just want to tell people who are reading this and you know someone who wants to commit suicide. Bring them back help them, i dont want someone to go through what i had to deal with its sad and devastating to anyone who is envolved. Thanks for taking the time to read what i have to say i appreciate it 45 | Reviewer: Andres Garcia ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown I don't believe this song is about happiness, or wanting to believe in a perfect world without crappy things. I truly believe this singer knows that it's a fantasy that can never be possible. However, I do think this song is about himself; how he once was this person that felt unimaginable happiness, and how he lost it. I don't know how. I find myself in this song: I once lived this life of peace and well being, and I lost it. I felt the pain swallowed me. I wanted to even kill myself, but in the end I came to realize life is hard, and that is a reality that I have to embrace. I believe this singer believes that to. He knows it's hard when he sings "And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 (45), Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)No real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45..." He swims through the ashes of the life he had, but at the same time he knows there's no reason to accept that everything should stay this way, there's got to be a way to find that inner peace again. However, he gets weak and looks at the end of a 45 (a gun), while all these feelings of battle and strengh sorround him. The bridge where he sings: "Everyone's pointing their fingers Always condemning me And nobody knows what I believe I believe..." means he has a new meaning for life that many people do not embrace. Maybe, those people used to be his friends or colleagues of some sort, and now they seem to criticize him. In the end it could all mean the path of his life. His experience. How he became who he is right now. Best band in the world | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song I Dare You performed by Shinedown This song seems to me as he feels someone's living through him almost. Like some parents forcing kids to do things they don't want to do, because the parent wants to? Although the ending confuses me... i love this song | Reviewer: jimmy sizemore ------ About the song Simple Man performed by Shinedown this song is something that my mom listen to all the time and shindown does it beter than any body else and i cry when i here it shindown down did it with soul. Way to much like me | Reviewer: Will ------ About the song Stranger Inside performed by Shinedown I have owned this album since it's release and always loved it. I am now in the middle of a divorce after a 9 year marriage. I never really listened to this song, but the other day I was in the car and I let it play through... It was crazy how close this song comes to lyrics that I would write about myself now. These guys are pure genius personified. Their songs have got me through some tough times, I hope they around for many years to come. So to wrap it up, this is an awesome song!! Save Him | Reviewer: Jess ------ About the song Save Me performed by Shinedown I had a friend that I met while he was in rehab he had a really bad addiction and he always told me that "Save Me" was his son when he got outta Rehab he stayed clean for about 8months. Long story short I'm not gunna erase him I'm gunna take away all those pills. I'm his opey instead of OC's it's sounds like me some times this is a great song | Reviewer: zoey ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown I think this song is great. it sounds like me when i broke up with my boyfriend that i was with for 5 years. Now when this song comes on it brings me back to that day. Plus it sounds like my every day life almost. but to tell you the truth i love this song a hell of alot. ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song 45 performed by Shinedown All I can say is that this song is amazing.
