Five Finger Death Punch has unveiled the new song “Sham Pain,” off the band’s long-awaited seventh studio album And Justice For None. The new song is the second of three brand new pre-order tracks and follows last week’s release, “Fake.” Fans can expect one more additional song to be revealed on May 4th, two weeks before the entire LP arrives on May 18th.

The members of Greta Van Fleet took time during a new interview with Rolling Stone to bemoan the current state of rock music and the way people experience it, with bassist Sam Kiszka saying, “There’s some fantastic music out there that’s new, that’s true to itself, well written. The problem is that it’s not being played on the radio, it’s not being played on these massive media formats. People ignore good music because it takes a little bit of extra brain power to listen to, but it’s so much more rewarding.”  Story source: Rolling Stone
