Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking the end of a prolonged hiatus and a highly publicized legal dispute over the band's name, frontman Benjamin Burnley recruited an entirely new lineup for this comeback record. 'Dark Before Dawn' reliably delivers the group's signature blend of radio-friendly post-grunge angst and heavy, down-tuned alternative metal riffs.
