Data Insight
Joe Hottinger writes here for the first time and lands on eleven of the thirteen tracks, which turns Halestorm from one writer with hired help into an actual pair. "Gonna Get Mine" is the first Halestorm song with no name on it but the band's own.
Into the Wild Life came out in April 2015 with Jay Joyce producing, and pushed the band toward blues and country textures. At 49:31 it is their longest album.
