Shinedown just dropped the sixth single from their upcoming eighth album, titled EI8HT, scheduled for release on May 29, 2026.
"Outlaw" is now available to stream on all major digital platforms, including YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and more. One thing fans will notice immediately is that "Outlaw" is the latest track where the band embraces a country-rock sound, and that was no accident.
Ahead of the release, Parade had the pleasure of speaking to lead singer Brent Smith about "Outlaw" and what inspired the new song.

"'Outlaw' is just... It's kind of a quintessential Shinedown song that's quite cinematic," Smith explained. "We love to create these songs that, when you listen to them, it's almost like a movie is playing in your subconscious, and you know, there are characters, there are different impulses in the song, there are different textures. It creates like its own world, so we have these songs from time to time to do that, and 'Outlaw' definitely did that."
Smith continued, "You know, when we wrote 'Searchlight' and then we decided to go a bit more... kind of rock country, but a bit more like outlaw country. Thus, 'Outlaw' was kind of born."
The Shinedown rocker went on to liken the feel of "Outlaw" to something you'd hear in a modern noir western, sharing that it has a "No Country For Old Men vibe to it."
With this latest release, that means we've heard one-third of the upcoming album. With 18 tracks, it's essentially a double album, and it's safe to say that several more hits haven't even been released yet.
EI8HT will drop just over two weeks after Shinedown's Dance, Kid, Dance Act II World Tour begins on May 13, 2026, in Green Bay, Wisconsin, at the Resch Center.
