At #19 on the ZRock Top 35 Rock Songs of All Time, we celebrate a track that’s bigger than music:
🌆 David Bowie – “Heroes.”
Released in 1977, it’s the story of fleeting triumphs, love against the odds, and standing tall. From the soaring guitar lines to Bowie’s impassioned vocals, Heroes is cinematic rock at its finest.

Speaking with My Weekly Mixtape, Barry Kerch said Shinedown’s upcoming eighth album won’t follow the concept‑record format of Attention Attention or Planet Zero. “Thank God it’s not a concept record… Can we just get a collection of songs together that are fun and put out a record, like old-school rock and roll record?' And that's what this one will be,” he explained.

Kerch added that the new singles don’t define the full direction of the album: “It’s as eclectic as we always do… get ready for a ride.” He also confirmed the working title is simply “Eight” while the band continues finalizing the record.
