They are touring behind their latest effort entitled "The Sound of Madness." Not a bad cd according to Vic Wettner. I have always been a bit more skeptical about the band. Besides a few good songs, I never got the band. But I love the new single and am eager for Vic to rip me a copy.

For the record, Vic is a shrewd business man who loathes Wal-Mart. He would rather overpay for a good or service than deal with the evil Wal-Mart. With that being said, he paid $49.99 for the Shinedown album and I feel that gives me the justification to steal the album from him for free. So Vic, burn me that copy.
