BLACK STONE CHERRY Drop New Studio Album
'Screamin' At The Sky' via Mascot Records
Reveal Video for ‘When The Pain Comes’
Today, BLACK STONE CHERRY unleash their hotly anticipated eighth studio album, ‘Screamin’ At The Sky’ via Mascot Records. To coincide with the album arriving, the Kentucky four-piece have revealed a new video for the album track, ‘When The Pain Comes.’
The band tell us:
“‘When The Pain Comes’ is a song that talks about squaring up with your inner pain and not letting it control you or take you over. Sometimes we have to push ourselves to find out who we are and always be ready to face whatever obstacles that may be thrown our way. Our part of the video was shot in Nashville, TN, in front of a green screen and it was great to work with Kyle Loftus again, who also did our video for ‘Nervous’. The video came out great, thanks to his incredible work and also an amazing performance by Audrey Kremer.”
Check out the official video below.
‘Screamin’ At The Sky’ is available to purchase on white solid vinyl, a limited edition deluxe vinyl box set, limited edition blue vinyl (HMV exclusive), standard CD and digital formats and is available to order or stream/save here.

‘Screamin’ At The Sky’ features all-new material written collaboratively while on tour, but when it came time to record, BSC decided to try something it’s always dreamed of doing: tracking an album at The Plaza Theater in Glasgow, Kentucky - a legendary 1020-seat venue built in 1934 that boasts meticulous acoustics. “Every time we played the Plaza we wondered what it would sound like to record drums there. We finally decided to put all our eggs in one basket,” Chris says. In June of 2022, the band rented the whole place, brought in all its recording equipment and its trusty engineer, Jordan Westfall. They set up the basement as the control room and the stage as the live drum room. Time between recording sessions and incredible room ambience have resulted in a career high watermark for BSC.
BLACK STONE CHERRY’s last album, ‘The Human Condition’, released in October 2020 was their sixth consecutive No. 1 debut on the UK Rock Albums chart. The album’s lead single, ‘Again’ was the band’s biggest single in over 10 years in America, peaking at #15, and their highest charting record ever in Canada, landing in the Top 15. The album racked-up 50 million streams worldwide. Over the years, BSC has both headlined and rocked 12,000-cap arena shows and shared the stage with a wide range of superstars, including Alter Bridge, Def Leppard, Gov’t Mule, Nickelback, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bad Company, Mötorhead, Halestorm, Stone Temple Pilots, The Darkness, and ZZ Top. In 2018, BSC performed in front of 100,000 people at the Download Festival as main support to Guns N’ Roses and in 2021, the band played the venerated Royal Albert Hall, immortalized on 2022’s live DVD ‘Live From The Royal Albert Hall…Y’All’.
