AfterLife

Five Finger Death Punch returns with a powerful statement in the form of "AfterLife (Deluxe)," their ninth studio album, released on April 5, 2024, via Better Noise Music. This 16-track heavy metal masterpiece clocks in at just over an hour, packing a punch with a blend of groove metal, hard rock, and classic heavy metal elements that fans of the genre will instantly appreciate.

The album kicks off with "Welcome To The Circus," setting the tone for the raw and aggressive sound that Five Finger Death Punch is known for. Standout tracks like "Times Like These" and "Roll Dem Bones" showcase the band's signature heavy riffs and powerful vocals, while "Judgement Day" and "IOU" delve into more introspective and hard-hitting themes.

One of the most anticipated aspects of this deluxe edition is the collaboration with the late, great DMX on the track "This Is The Way." The band has long admired DMX's aggressive and raw style, viewing him as "the metalhead of hip-hop," and this collaboration is a testament to their shared passion for fearless and authentic music.

In addition to the original tracks, the deluxe edition features acoustic versions of "Judgement Day," "The End," and "Thanks For Asking," offering a stripped-down and intimate look at some of the album's most powerful songs. The acoustic renditions provide a nice contrast to the heavy, distorted guitars that dominate the rest of the album.

Five Finger Death Punch is known for their high-energy live performances, and this album is no exception. With a tour scheduled for the summer of 2024, fans can look forward to hearing these new tracks live, along with classics from the band's extensive discography. The tour will take them across the UK and Europe, with stops at some of the biggest metal festivals in the region.
