Sevendust Bassist’s New Band, The CEO, Debuts First Single, “Redemption”

The CEO, the new band featuring Sevendust bassist Vinnie Hornsby, have debuted their first single and video, “Redemption.”

Musically speaking, the song is quite similar to Sevendust; similar style of riffing, similar style of background vocals, similar overall vibe and heaviness ratio. I’m hard-pressed to come up with any element of it that’s drastically different from Sevendust other than the voice (which is obviously important). Curiously, despite the band’s prominent plugs of Hornsby’s membership, he doesn’t get a whole lot of face time in the video, disappointing because his facial expressions are always an entertaining part of the Sevendust live experience.

The CEO’s self-titled album comes out on June 25 via RatPak Records; pre-order here.
