Hinder’s Cody Hanson on 20 Years of "Lips of an Angel," Scrapped Albums & Writing "Bring Me Back to Life" Apr 08, 2025

Show notes

In this episode, we sit down with Cody Hanson, drummer of the iconic rock band Hinder, to discuss:

🔥 The New Era:

Their explosive new single "Bring Me Back to Life" and why they scrapped an entire album during the pandemic for being "inauthentic"
How Hinder is evolving their sound—blending modern hard rock with their signature edge while avoiding nostalgia traps

🎸 20 Years of "Lips of an Angel":

Reflecting on the legacy of their era-defining hit and what it means to celebrate its 20th anniversary
The band’s journey from early-2000s success to maintaining relevance in today’s rock scene

🤘 Why Hinder is EMO (Yes, Really):

The "divorced dad rock" label, genre-blurring with country influences, and why emo/punk fans now embrace their emotional lyrics
Cody’s take on Nashville’s songwriting scene and collaborations with artists like Chad Kroeger (Nickelback)

🚀 What’s Next:

Upcoming festival appearances (Louder Than Life, Aftershock) and why they’re done "replicating the past"
The band’s mission to push boundaries without conforming to trends
