Atlantic recording group Halestorm has announced details of their massively anticipated new album. "INTO THE WILD LIFE" arrives everywhere today, April 7th; pre-orders are available now at all DSPs. Exclusive physical bundles are available at the band's official web store, http://smarturl.it/intothewildlifestore, which include a color vinyl version of the LP and an autographed poster.

"INTO THE WILD LIFE" marks the GRAMMY Award-winning hard rock band's long awaited third studio album and follow-up to 2012's chart-topping "THE STRANGE CASE OF..." Recorded last year in Nashville with GRAMMY-nominated producer Jay Joyce (Cage The Elephant, Eric Church) at the helm, the album is heralded by the scintillating new single, "Apocalyptic." The track is landing now at rock radio outlets nationwide, and can be heard here http://youtu.be/dkC18ZPfb90.

"'INTO THE WILD LIFE' is not a departure," says Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale. "It's an invitation to all things Halestorm. Lyrically and musically, we explored everything that makes us tick. We set a new standard for this record and gave ourselves no choice other than to be unapologetically ourselves in every way. Peel away at the onion that is our third record if you dare and let us drag you deeper into our world."

Widely acknowledged as one of modern hard rock's most explosive live acts, Halestorm will celebrate "INTO THE WILD LIFE" with an epic US headline tour, "Carnival of Madness presents Halestorm powered by Monster Energy." The first leg is set to get underway April 22nd at Nashville's legendary Ryman Auditorium, and then the tour will travel through May (see below itinerary). A fan club presale will begin on Wed., Jan. 14 at 10 AM local time, with the general on-sale on Friday, 1/16 at 10 AM local time. VIP packages will be available. Visit www.halestormrocks.com to learn more about joining Halestorm's fan club and for all tour and ticketing details.

The Pretty Reckless will support Halestorm on all dates of the tour. Of the tour, Taylor Momsen said, "This is going to be the last tour we do before we start on our new record, and it's a great one to finish the cycle. Come see us in Hell one more time."

In the meantime, Halestorm is currently supporting Eric Church on his blockbuster "Outsiders World Tour," with dates slated through early February. The "Outsiders World Tour" continues the phenomenal pairing of Halestorm and Church, a collaboration begun when the country superstar teamed with Lzzy Hale for an show-stopping duet performance of his hit single, "That's Damn Rock & Roll," on the 2014 CMT Music Awards.

Released in 2012, "THE STRANGE CASE OF..." debuted at #1 on Billboard's "Hard Rock Albums" chart while also making a top 15 entry onto the overall SoundScan/Billboard 200. The album's exceptional success was fueled in large part by the singles, "I Miss The Misery," "Love Bites (So Do I)" and "Freak Like Me," the latter two which made history by ascending to #1 at Active Rock radio outlets nationwide, marking Halestorm as the first-ever female-fronted group to top the format's airplay ranking. As if that weren't enough, "Love Bites (So Do I)" went on to earn the band their first-ever GRAMMY for "Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance" at 2013's 55th annual event.
