"Whiskey Hangover" Is A Song By American Heavy Metal Band Godsmack. Released As A Promotional Single In 2009 It Marked The Band's First In The Almost Two Years Since The Release Of "Good Times Bad Times." The Song Became A Live Staple In Godsmack's Shows During Crüe Fest 2 And Was Released In Promotion Of Their Appearance On The Tour. "Whiskey Hangover" Reached #1 On The Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks. The Writing Process According To Shannon Larkin Was Collaborative Stating That All Four Members Of The Band Wrote The Song And Sully Came Up With The Lyrics "All Four Of Us Were In The Room And We Wrote That Song In Like 3 Hours. But It Took Sully Weeks To Come Up With The Lyrics And He Wasn’t Even Happy With It ‘cause We Had To Rush It ‘cause We Needed Something For This Mötley Crüe Tour. The 3 Of Us Loved It But Sully Was Kind Of Irritated With It ‘cause He Knows It Could Have Been Better". Shannon Larkin Described The Single As A Prime Example Of Godsmack Original Sound Stating That "Whiskey Hangover Is Good Clue Of What The Band Is Going For It's More Simplistic Than The Last Record - Less Bluesy More Heavy" And A "return To The Original Sound Of The Godsmack And What Made The Band Happen In The First Place". 411Mania.Com Reviewer Mark Ingoldsby Gave The Song Three Stars Out Of Five Stating That The Single "is A Return To The Band's Well-Established Sound This Time Not Veering Far From Their Proven Hard Rock Hit-Making Formula That Was Somewhat Missing From Their Last And Least-Successful Album. Powerful Driving Guitars Rock Full Blast During The Track's Intro And Chorus And Then Take The Usual Back Seat As Singer Sully Erna Invokes His Trademark Vedder-Meets-Staley Vocal Stylings In The Verses".

"Whiskey Hangover" is a song by American heavy metal band Godsmack. Released as a promotional single in 2009, it marked the band's first in the almost two years since the release of "Good Times, Bad Times." The song became a live staple in Godsmack's shows during Crüe Fest 2 and was released in promotion of their appearance on the tour. "Whiskey Hangover" reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks.
The writing process, according to Shannon Larkin, was collaborative, stating that all four members of the band wrote the song and Sully came up with the lyrics:
"All four of us were in the room and we wrote that song in like 3 hours. But it took Sully weeks to come up with the lyrics, and he wasn’t even happy with it ‘cause we had to rush it, ‘cause we needed something for this Mötley Crüe tour. The 3 of us loved it, but Sully was kind of irritated with it ‘cause he knows it could have been better".
Shannon Larkin described the single as a prime example of Godsmack original sound, stating that "Whiskey Hangover is good clue of what the band is going for, it's more simplistic than the last record - less bluesy, more heavy", and a "return to the original sound of the Godsmack and what made the band happen in the first place".
411Mania.com reviewer Mark Ingoldsby gave the song three stars out of five, stating that the single "is a return to the band's well-established sound, this time not veering far from their proven hard rock hit-making formula that was somewhat missing from their last and least-successful album. Powerful, driving guitars rock full blast during the track's intro and chorus, and then take the usual back seat as singer Sully Erna invokes his trademark Vedder-meets-Staley vocal stylings in the verses".
