The Question

by Emery

The Question cover art

Produced by Aaron Sprinkle, this sophomore release is a loose concept album centered on the various 'questions' regarding faith, mortality, and interpersonal failure. It is widely considered a definitive document of the mid-2000s screamo explosion for its balance of high-velocity rhythmic intensity and soaring pop-inflected choruses. The recording established the band's reputation for technical guitar counterpoint and emotive storytelling.
