I used to be a huge staind fan. Their very first two albums kicked ass. "Tormented and Dysfunction" were really fitting to what kind of statement they wanted to make. I liked them a lot. "Break The Cycle" was alright, it had a few good songs on it. A lot of old hardcore fans ditched them but i was excited to see what step they would take next. I think they took a fitting one in writing mellower songs. I actually like their new album a lot and i'm happy for the guys.

Everyone should check out the whole bands history and not just this new album. :)
