Sober (Bad Wolves song)
2021 single by Bad Wolves

"Sober" is a song by American rock band Bad Wolves. It was their second single off of their second studio album N.A.T.I.O.N.. It topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart for two weeks in June 2020.
Background
The song was released in January 2020, as the second single from their third album, N.A.T.I.O.N., with a music video being released at the same time.
The video features frontman Tommy Vext at an addiction recovery meeting. Vext had previously suffered from addiction, and had affected his role in bands he performed with in the past. The song will also be on the soundtrack for the film Sno Babies, a feature film scheduled for late 2020 release that depicts two girl's struggle with opiate addiction.
The song was the band's fifth song in a row to top the active rock chart, and their fourth to top the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart. The song also made the band be the first to have two different songs top the latter chart, with "Killing Me Slowly" topping earlier in the year. Sober stayed atop of the chart for two weeks.
