Alabama Shakes Drops First Original Since 2015—Surprise!
After an epic six-year pause so long it practically qualifies as a sabbatical, Alabama Shakes have decided to grace us with 'Another Life,' their first original track since 2015's Sound & Color. That's right, fans waited from the era of hoverboards and fidget spinners until post-pandemic 2021 to get fresh tunes. The trio didn’t just resurrect their sound—they revived hope for those stuck in musical limbo. Notably, no announcement about riding the nostalgia wave or releasing old hits as 'new.' Just pure original rock vibes from the band's Sony Music realm. Who knew a six-year dry spell could produce such thirst-quenching creativity?

(1 of 3)Alabama Shakes' 'Another Life' proves it’s never too late to drop new music—just make sure you wait to outlast a pandemic, two Olympic games, and endless internet memes first.
Alabama Shakes took six years—enough time to contemplate life’s meaning, invent a new coffee brewing method, or just finally finish their next album. Priorities.
'Another Life' is less 'new track' and more 'surprise reunion after a musical hibernation.' Expect the sequels to come out just in time for 2030.
