The band’s new album ‘One’ arrives on May 1
After recently confirming their upcoming 15th studio album, Sevendust have revealed the record’s lead single – “Is This the Real You?” The band premiered the track while on tour in Europe with Alter Bridge. The new album One is slated for arrival on May 15 through Napalm Records.
Stream the official music video for “Is This the Real You?” below now.
“It was as honest, natural, and pure as any song can be. If you really want to know what Sevendust sounds like in 2026, ‘Is This The Real You?’ gives you a good idea,” Sevendust guitarist John Connolly explains.
The accompanying video, directed by Paul Ribera, further highlights Sevendust’s ability to captivate through striking visuals. The animated clip follows a sharply dressed character who possesses the power to compel people into actions they wouldn’t normally take. As the story unfolds, each character is confronted with a hidden side of themselves, mirroring Witherspoon’s haunting chorus question: “Is this the real you?” The video transitions panel by panel with dramatic zooms, building toward a dark, devilish finale.
Check out the cover art and tracklisting for the new album below, plus a link to pre-order. The all-new One will be available on signed CD, black splatter vinyl, red and black split vinyl, and red and black marble vinyl. The band has also curated a new merch line for the album featuring t-shirts and a hoodie.
Building on their unmistakable sound while continuing to evolve, One proves why Sevendust remain a vital force nearly three decades into their career. From the driving opening riff of the title track “One” to the dreamy, atmospheric vocal outro of “Misdirection,” the album takes listeners on an emotional journey that only Sevendust can deliver. Tracks such as “Unbreakable” and “We Won” stand confidently alongside the band’s most iconic material.
Renowned as one of the most powerful live bands in modern metal, Sevendust are preparing to hit the road in support of One. Their U.S. headline tour kicks off April 16 in Carterville, IL, and runs through May 20, concluding in Knoxville, TN. Atreyu, Fire From The Gods, and American Adrenaline will join as support. The band will also open for Alter Bridge at two special U.S. dates: April 26 in Atlanta, GA, and May 21 in Nashville, TN. Additionally, Sevendust will appear at major festivals including Welcome To Rockville and Sonic Temple.
