Fozzy has released the single “I Still Burn,” from its upcoming album “Boombox” (May 6, 2022, Century Media Records; pre-order here).
“‘I Still Burn’ is the story of the dreams, the passion and the fire that lies within all of us to be the absolute best we can be … and to do WHATEVER it takes to achieve the goals that make our dreams come true!” frontman Chris Jericho said. “The sacrifices, the losses, and the triumphs that we have all experienced make up the lyrical DNA of this song. ‘I Still Burn’ is Fozzy’s mission statement, our life’s work and our destiny … and we are so proud to share this message of victory with our Fozzy family!! Plus, Rich’s guitar solo fuckin rules!!!”
Lead guitarist Rich Ward said: “My entire career has been about pushing to the summit of the climb, never satisfied with boiling water with the Sherpas at Base Camp 2. I’ve been touring and making records for three decades, and I remain as passionate as ever. ‘I Still Burn’ is the story of the fire that fuels that passion. This is our story!”
Fozzy has scored five consecutive top 20 singles, but fans across the world know that the benchmark was set high with its 2017 breakout “Judas.” Reaching the top five on the U.S. rock charts and totaling 55 million views on YouTube for the music video, the song has reached its biggest milestone yet–gold record status, symbolizing the accomplishment of 500,000 copies sold.
“Being awarded a gold record has been a dream of mine ever since I started listening to The Beatles at 9 years old and saw a picture of them getting an award for ‘Beatles VI,’” Jericho said. “Then as I grew older and heard Ozzy talk about his ‘gold discs’ and seeing the walls of Rudolf Schenker’s house plastered with framed Scorpions awards, I set my goals on someday getting one of my own. And for ‘Judas’ to have sold 500,000 units in this day and age, completely blows my mind as a fan and a musician, and also makes me realize how far Fozzy has come and how far we are going to go!! Thanks to ALL OF YOU for making this dream come true for me and the guys. I can’t wait to hang my award on my wall … just like Rudolph.”
Fozzy also is getting ready to kick off the second wave of the “Save the World Tour.” To celebrate “Judas” reaching gold record status, the band is planning some special celebrations for its shows in New York and Los Angeles. Tickkets and VIP packages for all dates are available for purchase HERE.
