Background

edit

The band had already completed recording of the album by December 31, 2016. However, due to ongoing problems with their label Prospect Park, the album was delayed until 2018 after they reached negotiations with the label. After negotiations were reached in late 2017, they released the greatest hits compilation A Decade of Destruction and two new songs entitled "Trouble" and a cover of The Offspring song "Gone Away" recorded for the new album, were included on the compilation, with "Trouble" being featured on the deluxe version of the new album, which also features a different album cover than the standard edition.[14]

With the standard edition having a runtime of 47 minutes and 15 seconds, And Justice for None is the longest Five Finger Death Punch album to date.

Reception

edit

At the 2019 Bandit Rock Awards ceremony, And Justice for None won Best International Album.[15]
