Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Welsh outfit's debut album became a cornerstone of the mid-2000s metalcore explosion, blending the dual-guitar harmonies of classic British heavy metal with the emotional angst of post-hardcore. Driven by Matthew Tuck's blend of clean singing and harsh screams, the highly accessible songwriting secured massive crossover commercial appeal.
