Here’s what a few critics are saying about Godsmack’s live show:
“Filled with pyro, extreme lighting, sonic booms, and their entire catalogue of hits, this was an adrenaline rush entering your veins from start to finish.” – Annunziato Scaglione, National Rock Review, 5/19/18

“It’s an all out assault on the senses when [Godsmack] start getting into their second set. Broad and bold, this band makes its mark and if all you can remember after 3 days is Godsmack, then success fostered its way to your memory bank and you leave wanting more.” – Charlotte Alexander, Go Venue Magazine (Welcome to Rockville), 5/9/18

The critically acclaimed 11-song collection entered the Billboard Top 200 album chart in the top ten (#8), with four #1 placements on other charts: Top Rock Albums, Top Hard Music Albums, Top Independent Albums and Top Alternative Albums. The album finds Sully Erna [vocals, guitar], Tony Rombola [guitar], Robbie Merrill [bass], and Shannon Larkin [drums] doubling down on their combination of tightly wound riffs, rhythmic fury, naked emotions and pushed-to-the-edge vocals, all fired up with melodic precision and tight songcraft.
