I’ve got a few scraps of lyrics but nothing else—heard this on the local rock station the other day and never got the title. There’s something about “you’re a social disease, time to take your medicine” and “I created the book of madness” [methinks]. Very hard rock, kind of like Saliva’s “Ladies and Gentlemen.”

Halp!

Shinedown - [Sound of Madness](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGt-8adyabk)

Very good band, if a bit “radio friendly”. They’re from Jacksonville, FL btw.

ETA: Sorry it took me so long to get this one. I was playing WoW tonight.
