Sevendust

'Unraveling' is the first official single off Sevendust's eighth studio album 'Cold Day Memory,' dropping Apr. 20. The hard-hitting pop/rock song is about a damaged relationship, full of lies and disappointment: "I want the world to see / You sold a broken dream / You were not there for me / I was unraveling."

The band will be finishing up their tour with Drowning Pool on Mar. 27. Check out upcoming tour dates, and listen to their new track on AOL Radio's Xtreme Alt Rock station.

Kenny Chesney 'Ain't Back Yet' -- New Song

Kenny Chesney Ain't Back Yet

Kenny Chesney's 'Ain't Back Yet' is about the passions in life and the things that drive us: a first love, chasing dreams, or in Chesney's case -- pursuing music. Which is why he picked this song to be featured during the end credits of his forthcoming film 'Kenny Chesney: Summer in 3-D,' scheduled for an April 21 release by Sony Picture Entertainment's The Hot Ticket division. "That song is pretty much everything about what happened to me, especially with the music," Chesney reveals. "You get so focused on what you're trying to accomplish, it takes over... and there's nothing that's going to come between you and your dream. For some people, it's sports; for me, it was the music."

The tune is also expected to appear on his re-release of 2009's compilation album 'Greatest Hits II.' To listen to his new track -- co-written by Craig Wiseman and Chris Tompkins -- go to AOL Radio's New Country First station.

TobyMac Tonight
