Black Stone Cherry rock band

Black Stone Cherry’s “Screamin’ At The Sky,” released in 2023 under Mascot Records, rekindles the raw, dynamic energy reminiscent of their 2006 debut. The band, re-energized with the addition of bassist Steve Jewell Jr., who stepped in for co-founder Jon Lawhon in 2021, delivers a powerful performance in this concise, 40-minute powerhouse of an album.

The record roars to life with the intense guitar work in “The Mess You Made” and maintains its vigorous pace through the riff-heavy, post-grunge nuances of “You Can Have It All.” Black Stone Cherry’s latest offering is a relentless display of musical strength, with the band unleashing full-force from start to finish.

“Maybe it’s just me but, on occasion, while listening to the album, I caught myself thinking that this is what AEROSMITH would sound like today if they still made good music.” – Tuonela Magazine

“Screamin’ At The Sky hits as hard as anything they’ve ever done.” – Kerrang

“…there are some absolute stormers on the album. Recent singles Out Of Pocket and Nervous, for example,  both sound monstrously heavy on arrival. Heavy riffs ride on a thunderous bed of bass and drums with hook-laden melodies carrying the vocals. ” – All About the Rock UK
