Brantley Gilbert says his new project reflects this time in his life, "You know, I’m a lot of things. I’m rough around the edges, to say the least. Even being a married dad, you know, I still hang out with a rough crowd. Those are my people, but my one true north has always been my faith and my wife and I have that in common, and this record is kind of just about being comfortable in your own skin in spite of judgment… Fire & Brimstone is kind of just, be the best version of you that you know how to be.”

Fire and Brimstone will be in stores tomorrow (10/4).
