Data Insight

Scott Stevens is credited alongside Lzzy Hale on the whole record, which reverses the shift Vicious had made: the other three members drop back to one track each. Ten years after "Love Bites (So Do I)", Stevens is writing every song on a Halestorm album rather than one of them.

Back from the Dead came out in May 2022 with Nick Raskulinecz and Scott Stevens producing. It has sold 107,000 in the United States and its first two singles both topped Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart.
