“…at the top of its game. Offering more than blind rage, though there’s certainly plenty, the songs live in the tension implied by the album’s title—aware of the implications of lashing out, ready to accept the consequences.”
–Brian Mansfield, USA TODAY (album review, 11/19/2013)
On the heels of the November 19 release of their second top two album within four months in 2013, rock heavyweights FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH have soared to #1 at Active Rock Radio with “Battle Born,” the first single off THE WRONG SIDE OF HEAVEN AND THE RIGHTEOUS SIDE OF HELL – VOLUME 2, which has just entered the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart at #2. The video for “Battle Born” was premiered on USAToday.com(10/1) and can be viewed here: http://bit.ly/1c05nEJ.
The multi-million selling FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH are shining a new light on rock in 2013 with the second installment of their masterwork titled THE WRONG SIDE OF HEAVEN AND THE RIGHTEOUS SIDE OF HELL – VOLUME 2, released via Prospect Park in North America and on Eleven Seven in all other territories. It follows the massive global success this past July of VOLUME 1. VOLUME 2 also debuted at #6 in Canada overall and #1 on the Rock & Metal chart, #19 on Germany’s mainstream charts, #29 in Australia and #44 in the U.K. overall and #1 (U.K.) on the official Rock & Metal chart.
