Brantley Gilbert shared a new song and the release date of his new upcoming album. "Fire & Brimstone" is set to drop on October 4.
This will be Brantley's fifth studio album and he's not been shy about sharing its new songs, however: Since late 2018, fans have been able to hear a few of the more than a dozen tracks on the forthcoming project. Gilbert says he wrote and re-wrote the album "three times" in his quest to make it perfect.
"My albums are important to me, and the stories on them are very important to me because they do tell a chapter of my life," he explains. "That being said, with the way people consume music now if you release that giant project, you're burning most of the songs on the record. The attention span just isn't there for people who may not be the most devoted fans. Our BG Nationers will listen to every song, but if you're trying to reach new people, the attention span's just not there. So being able to release these songs periodically leading up to the album has been awesome."
All 15 tracks were written or co-written by Gilbert and the album includes already-released cuts like the personal ode to his children “Man That Hung the Moon,” the growl-heavy “Not Like Us” and the Top 15-and-climbing collaboration with Lindsay Ell “What Happens in a Small Town.”
The album also features a series of powerhouse collaborations with some of Country music’s best artists such as Willie Nelson, Alison Krauss, Jamey Johnson, Lukas Nelson, and Colt Ford.
