"Under Your Scars" is the latest single from the band's current album, "When Legends Rise". The song is now #5 on the Active Rock Chart, coming on the heels of the album's two previous #1 active rock hits: "When Legends Rise" and "Bulletproof," the latter of which was recently certified Gold in the US for over 500,000 digital single equivalents and was also the most-played song at rock radio in 2018.
To coincide with the release of "Under Your Scars," Sully Erna announced the creation of The Scars Foundation to support ongoing mental-health struggles facing so many. For more information, please click here.
