2024 release. Guitarist Jason Hook is storming out of the gates with his new band Flat Black. The former Five Finger Death Punch guitarist has recruited a trio of young and talented turks and are ready to release their debut album. DARK SIDE OF THE BRAIN was produced by Hook and recorded at the Hideout Studios as well as his home studio, both in Las Vegas. Despite having reached a commercial summit with his prior band, thanks to multiple platinum certifications, sold-out arena shows, and a string of No. 1 singles, Hook remains as hungry for musical blood and thunder as the day he first picked up a guitar at the age of 6.
