Godsmack just released their sixth album, 1000hp, last year, but in the midst of a tour, the band released a new song, “Inside Yourself.” They made a statement on the song  dedicating it to radio, which is a large reason why they broke in the first place. It’s both nice to see them thank programmers at rock radio stations and also a guaranteed way to get airplay from them as well, which is kinda savvy on their part. Musically, the song sounds pretty much like Godsmack, which is to say, meh. The song is available for free download for a limited time at the band’s website. Here’s the band’s message:

“To all radio stations, programming directors and most importantly, our FANS! Here’s something fun we recently recorded just for you! Year after year you have shown us nothing but love and loyalty by purchasing our music, playing our songs, and attending our live shows. You have ALL been a critical part of this band’s success for the last 18 years, and it doesn’t go unnoticed. So to show our appreciation, we would like to gift you our new song “Inside Yourself” and say Thank You for always having our back! This is a song about equality for all! Understanding that no one is worthless or any lesser than the next person. We are all equally important as human beings and should be treated that way. And for those of you who feel the need to cut others down to make yourself look superior, you seriously need to take a good look “inside yourself”. This one is on us! Enjoy!” – Sully Erna
