Stephen Chesney‘s long-anticipated project Agents Of Demise, has been brought to life with some of the biggest names in rock music and has officially unveiled its first single, a song entitled “Nothing’s Made To Last”. The track, and its lyric video, serve as a preview to their upcoming debut album, due for release in the first quarter of 2025.
“What you hear on the record in a lot of ways is the story of the last 10/15 years of my life. They’re songs written during some crazy peaks and valleys and I think that makes it a very relatable record. A lot of anger, a lot of venting, and a few receipts (maybe…) but there’s a pretty good sense of humor kept within the lyrics throughout. The musicianship of the guys involved is as incredible as you’d expect from them, it was amazing having the songs come together with guys that have the ability that these guys do… and then having Dizzy sign on for the final two songs I was tracking made all the time that it took to get to this point worth it.” said Stephen Chesney.
