Godsmack - News (496 words)
The band is promoting its fourth full-length album, "IV," which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard album charts when it was released in April.
Larkin said the foursome is particularly proud of the new album, which was recorded under circumstances that were challenging but ultimately led to some subtle changes in the Godsmack sound.
As a result, he said "IV" is distinctive from the previous three Godsmack albums, which all achieved multi-platinum sales, while still retaining the band's signature hard-driving sound.
