ON THIS DATE JUST 2 YEARS AGO, THE PENNSYLVANIA BASED ROCKERS HALESTORM FOUNDED BY THE HALE SIBLINGS, LZZY AND AREJAY BACK IN 1997 DROPPED THEIR 5TH STUDIO ALBUM. THEY HAD BEGUN WORK ON THE ALBUM JUST BEFORE THE ONSET OF THE COVID 19 OUTBREAK IN 2020 AND DURING LOCKDOWN, LIKE MUCH OF THE REST OF THE WORLD, THE BAND WAS FORCED TO DO THINGS DIFFERENT THAN BEFORE AND STRUGGLED TO FIND WAYS TO FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THEIR SUPPORT STAFF AND MANY OF THE ALBUMS LYRICS WERE INFLUENCED BY LZZY’S EXPERIENCES BEING CUT OFF FROM FANS AND BANDMATES …SHE SAYS THAT THE ALBUM IS THE STORY OF HER CARVING HERSELF OUT OF THE ABYSS…A JOURNEY OF NAVIGATING MENTAL HEALTH…AND STILL MAINTAINING FAITH IN HUMANITY…BOY…I KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF US THAT FELT THAT IN OUR SOULS! THE ALBUM, THAT DROPPED ON THIS DATE WITH THE APPROPRIATE TITLE “BACK FROM THE DEAD” , AND THE TITLE TRACK WENT ON TO TOP THE ROCK CHART AND IS TODAY’S ROXY’S ROCK REWIND ON 105.7 THE X!
