::: Hinder :::
Hinder, the multi-platinum Oklahoma City rockers, are gearing up for their fifth studio album When the Smoke Clears (set for release via The End Records/ADA this spring).
Singalong anthems, such as “Get Stoned” and “Lips Of An Angel,” shot them to megastardom, establishing Hinder as the next wave in anthemic rock. Now with over a decade-plus career under their belts, and having honed their live chops touring with the likes of Mötley Crüe, Nickelback, Aerosmith, and Papa Roach, Hinder’s upcoming album with their official new lead vocalist Marshal Dutton has breathed new sound, and new air, into the ever-evolving band.
“We’ve made a really great record,” said drummer Cody Hanson. “Once the fans get a hold of it, they will be very happy with it. This band was built around a strong core of hard work and friendship. Like it or not, we’re going to be around for a long time.”
The band, which released its debut Extreme Behavior in 2005, followed by 2008′s Take It to the Limit, 2010′s All American Nightmare, and 2012′s Welcome to the Freak Show, has every reason to have that kind of unfettered confidence in the new album. They have an unfuckwithable foundation, one that is bolstered by true friendships and proven know-how when it comes to writing and recording songs.
The songs on When the Smoke Clears run the gamut from rowdy rock to subtle country influence to memorable pop hooks, all of which retain the DNA-distinct spirit of Hinder. That ability to walk the tightrope between genres, without a net, is something Hanson is proud of. “We can cross genres whenever we want,” he said. “We don’t want to be a band that can only do that one thing. We have something for everyone. We’ve always been that way. Having the ability to do our own production, having our own studio, gives us a chance to experiment and try new things.”
“Hit the Ground” is a key song on the album, since the lyrical content is so genuine. “Through the years, we’ve been known as a party band,” Hanson acknowledged. “That is still our thing, but we’ve lived every lyric in this song. We know what it feels like to have our entire world crash down around us. The song shows fans where we were mentally. And we know how true the last line of the chorus really is.” The line he is referencing – the powerful statement that “Falling feels like flying ’til you hit the ground.”
