"Wrong Side of Heaven" comes off Five Finger Death Punch's fourth album, The Wrong Side of Heaven and the Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 1, and went out as its third single in August 2014, the band's nineteenth overall. Kevin Churko produced it alongside the band and handled the engineering and the mix, with Ivan Moody out front, Zoltan Bathory and Jason Hook on guitars, Chris Kael on bass and Jeremy Spencer on drums.
The video gave the song its real purpose. The band, already regulars at military concerts, used the clip to show what post-traumatic stress disorder does to wounded soldiers and to help veterans living on the streets. They backed it up with an Indiegogo campaign built around a "No One Gets Left Behind" jersey, and asked the families and friends of late veterans to send dog tags for a memorial wall.
