The track continues the indie-leaning direction they explored with ' Search Party, '  blending pop sensibility with the band’s signature pop-rock power.

The announcement comes on the back of the band's Blackbird Festival in Wales, scheduled for next summer. The moody track opens with the distinctive guitar sounds of Kennedy and Tremonti, followed by the rhythm section of Marshall and Phillips. The chorus is driven by Kennedy’s haunting vocals as he sings: “Keep your head down, ride out the silent divide.” The track is accompanied by a new music video.

The video was directed by JT Ibanez. Watch the new music video for "Silent Divide" HERE :  The band team...

I see it almost as much as I see people happily together. Some people enjoy misery, and this song is a...
