Tenth Anniversary Edition


The band celebrated the tenth anniversary of the album's release by releasing a 10th Anniversary edition featuring "all-new artwork as well as pre-production demos and bonus material."

In a statement announcing the reissue of Halestorm, Lzzy Hale said: "We lived through a fire, a mudslide, an earthquake and 19 months in Burbank, California to make sure our debut album was released. To celebrate our 10th year anniversary of our debut album on Atlantic Records, we decided to include raw, never-before-heard demos and rejects, new art, and personal letter from me taking you through our roller-coaster ride. I hope you enjoy this special piece of Halestorm history."[11]
