FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH Frontman IVAN MOODY Talks Battle With Alcohol And Getting Sober - "When I Was Drunk, I Knew How My Life Was Gonna End; I Planned On It"

Guesting on Green Bay radio station Razor 94.7, Five Finger Death Punch frontman Ivan Moody opened up about his battle with alcohol. He is just over three months sober.

Moody:  "When I was drunk, I knew how my life was gonna end. I planned on it. I was gonna not wake up one day, or go into seizure and die. I was comfortable because I knew what was gonna happen. And now being sober, I don't know how I'm gonna go. And that's a fucking scary thing. And I've met a lot of addicts that feel the same way."

Five Finger Death Punch have released an official video for the new song “Sham Pain” off their long-awaited seventh studio album, And Justice For None, due out May 18th. Check it out below.

"Sham Pain" song marks the second of three brand new pre-order tracks and follows last week’s release “Fake” which generated just under 1 million streams in the US during its first week and made the viral chart on Spotify in multiple countries. Fans can expect one more additional song to be revealed on May 4th. Listen to “Sham Pain” below.

“’Sham Pain’ is a lyrical snapshot of probably the biggest, yet most chaotic year of this band’s career,” says guitarist Zoltan Bathory. “Everyone has a different way of dealing with the moments when life hands them lemons... some complain and some make lemonade. Us, we pour gasoline on it and then hit it with a rocket launcher. Sarcasm has always been our ‘Art of War’ (if from naming the band ‘Five Finger Death Punch’ you haven’t figured it out yet), but just wait until you see the video we made for this song.”

And Justice For None, out on May 18th, is available for physical pre-order in the following formats:

- Standard physical CD (13 tracks)
- Deluxe physical CD (13 tracks + 3 bonus tracks + Deluxe artwork)
- Vinyl (13 tracks + 3 bonus tracks + Deluxe gatefold artwork)

The band is also offering fans a variety of new CD/merchandise bundles.

Fans who pre-order the new album will also receive an exclusive ticket pre-sale code for Five Finger Death Punch’s just announced 32-date North American summer co-headlining amphitheater tour with Breaking Benjamin.
