Legendary heavy metal vocalist and pop culture icon Dee Snider recently announced his triumphant fifth full-length album, “Leave A Scar”, out on July 30th, 2021 via Napalm Records. To commemorate the release of his new album, Dee Snider has announced a streaming event for his fans on Thursday, July 29th, 2021.
All ticket buyers will gain access to the concert stream on the 29th, as well as on-demand access to any and all content from the event for a 30-day period!
The concert stream features a very special concert from Snider performing live in New York back on June 12. Tickets for the stream are available now here. Watch also a video from Dee Snider announcing the upcoming concert stream!
Like a scar itself, “Leave A Scar” is an illuminating plentitude of angst etched in time – serving as a musical refuge and expressive output for Dee. But in turn, this auditory time capsule written to express the anger, unease and pain he experienced during lockdown emerges as not only blisteringly heavy, but relentlessly powerful. Each of the 12 tracks on “Leave A Scar” not only further bolster Dee Snider’s position as one of the most celebrated frontmen of all time, showcasing that his vocal delivery and commanding swagger is as strong as ever, but that he is nowhere near stopping.
Heads will bang within seconds of the hard-charging opening notes of ultra-catchy album starter and lifer anthem “I Gotta Rock (Again)”, instantly setting the stage for the non-stop onslaught of metallic mainstays to come. Tracks like the brutal “Time to Choose” – featuring the primed guest vocal attack of Cannibal Corpse’s George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher – and mosh-ready “The Reckoning” showcase the album’s heavy assault, without sacrificing the harmonic goodness evident on tracks like the unrelenting, hooky thrasher “All or Nothing More” and melodic, metalcore inspired “In for the Kill”. Energetic single of strength “Down But Never Out” encapsulates the chunky riffage and driving drums palpable throughout the album, while searing “Before I Go” provides one of the album’s most massive, memorable choruses and chilling lyrics. The album closes with victorious ballad “Stand”, a call for listeners to take a stand and make their voices heard. If “For the Love of Metal” ignited Dee Snider’s eminent surge into a new era – “Leave A Scar” sets it ablaze.
Dee Snider says about “Leave A Scar”:
“By the end of 2020, I knew I not only had to get back into the studio, but for the first time since the 90s, I wanted – no, needed – to be a part of the writing process. I reached out to my producer Jamey Jasta and told him I was ready to make another record. "Leave a Scar" is filled with messages to and for the silent voices in the world who need someone to speak out on their behalf. This is my purpose”.
Jamey Jasta says regarding working with Dee Snider again:
“Getting to work with Dee again has been incredible! The power and range in his vocals on this album really shine. Not only is he an American treasure and staple in the rock/metal community, he’s a truly original voice and talent like no other. Combine that with the metallic prowess of the Bellmore bros + Russell Pzütto and Nick Petrino, you get a rockin’ metal recipe that even the most "Dee-hard" SMF’ers will surely love!”...
