GODSMACK PARTNERS WITH CHARITY HOME BASE WITH SINGLE "WHAT'S NEXT"

CHARITY BENEFITS TREATMENT FOR POST-9/11 WAR VETERANS RETURNING STATESIDE

NEW YORK, NY - Always extending a helping hand to veterans and supporting the U.S. military whenever they can, Grammy Award-nominated multi-platinum Boston hard rock heroes GODSMACK have joined forces with a fellow Beantown institution, the Home Base Program.

Home Base was created as a joint venture between Massachusetts General Hospital and the Boston Red Sox,and its goal is to help and heal post-9/11 veterans and their families by treating the invisible wounds of war that those who bravely serve carry home. The initiative emphasizes clinical care, wellness-based programs, community outreach, and education. To date, it has successfully served over 7500 veterans and their families in addition to training more than 10,000 clinicians nationally for specialized Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) treatment.

As part of their partnership, GODSMACK is giving away a free download of their new single "What's Next?" from last year's 1000HP [Republic Records] to anybody who donates to Home Base via this special link on the band's web site.

About the partnership, the group's members; Sully Erna [vocals, guitar], Tony Rombola [guitar], Robbie Merrill [bass], and Shannon Larkin [drums]; announced in this video, "We felt that this song represented the story. It's about the only things that are certain, life and death, but "What's Next" has always been the big mystery. For these noble brave soldiers who put their lives on the line every day for us to allow us to live freely and fearlessly in the greatest country in the world, they don't know what's next now, and they need our help."
