American Sharks – Going Insane
Did you miss’m? Not as much as I did! Been thinking about doing a segment for Stoner HiVe about bands I miss like crazy. For even though we are bombarded with new amazing music on a daily basis, I still miss the hell out of bands like Year Long Disaster, Redcoats, Been Obscene and Cojones. And yes… Many more! American Sharks was among that list! And guess what?! They are Not Dead Yet! They are back and ready to kick ass and chew bubblegum… And guess what, they’re all out of gum…
But not out of kick ass riffs and that wild American Sharks energy! Just go listen to the lead single Going Insane and yes, go insane with the American Sharks! Album drops on April 17th through Permanent Teeth. I love’m!
PR Wire:
American Sharks share new single "Going Insane",
announce North American tour with RBBP in April-May
Austin trio American Sharks share their first new single in 6 years today, "Going Insane" on all DSPs HERE. The song is the lead track from their forthcoming new album Not Dead Yet.
The band also announce full U.S. tour dates supporting Rickshaw Billie's Burger Patrol beginning in April. Please see all dates below. Tickets for all shows are available.
American Sharks is a three-piece band hailing from Austin, TX. Their punk-metal hybrid sound blends pop hooks with blasting-yer-face riffs resulting in something akin to if Weezer went Stoner Rock. Coupled with hook-laden singalong lyrics, American Sharks’ forthcoming 2026 album Not Dead Yet is, well, a breathtaking return.
The band is joined on the album by special guest guitar soloists: Mike Derks (GWAR), Zach Blair (Rise Against), Kyle Shutt (The Sword), David Sullivan (Red Fang), and Leo Lydon (Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol).
Since the release of their 2013 self-titled debut album, American Sharks has toured extensively supporting the likes of GWAR, Clutch, The Sword, Red Fang, Big Business, Corrosion of Conformity and many others. After touring to support their debut album on The End Records, American Sharks took time off to write and record their self-produced follow up album, 11:11 on BMG. After a 5 year break, American Sharks are back (centered around founders, vocalist/bassist Roky Moon and drummer Nick Cornetti) with 9 fast-paced, pummeling tracks.
Not Dead Yet will be available on LP, CD and download on April 17th, 2026 via Permanent Teeth.
Pre-orders are available HERE.
