Produced by Johnny K - known for his work with 3 Doors Down, Disturbed, and Sevendust, not to mention his Grammy Award-nominated collaboration with Staind, 2008's The Illusion Of Progress - and mixed by the legendary Chris Lord-Alge, Staind stands as Staind's most intense and powerful work to date. The album is heralded by the viral "Eyes Wide Open" and official single "Not Again" Singer/songwriter/guitarist Aaron Lewis recent described Staind as "the heaviest thing we have recorded in a long time. It's definitely one of the heaviest collections of songs that we have put together." "It's completely different than the last record," agrees guitarist Mike Mushok. "It's more of a throwback to where we came from. I definitely think it's fresh. It's a modern-sounding version of a heavy Staind record. It's pretty cool." ## Images ![Staind - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81UuZE6HVlL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Smoking Hot *by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2013* First, simply take a glance at the cumulative score this record posted. Out of 99, now 100, this collection of tunes scores over 4.5, because I post it at 5. I've repeatedly listened to them all; every album the group pressed. All speak with a courageous personal voice. The lyrics of Lewis are replete with honest passion and penetrating human feeling. This I honor, and often do not find in the work of many fine bands. In this album they move to what seems an almost primal surge. The power of the complete arrangements is breath-taking. The product summery for this album states that it is "the heaviest most hypnotic." Not only is this a reasonable comment, if one listens, quite clearly this collection is the most seasoned heavy-duty work Staind has provided. I sense, from the lyrics of the parting track, this may be their last. I for one do not wish to leave their space. One review of this album suggests Break the Cycle to have been this bands' "peak." Break the Cycle is harmonically haunting with its' creation of vocal harmonic minor chords, yet it does not stand as the most sophisticated work of the group. Further, another review suggests something along the lines of "these old-dudes looking completely out of place." This seems to suggest that if you pass twenty-five, you shouldn't grind. The blending and coloring of music requires time. Refinement requires time. Shapes are envisioned, and tints added. Music is an art form. It's development, it's flavor, come only in this way. As a general rule I, personally, do not grind non-stop. Melody matters, as does vocal harmony, a talent Staind displayed from the beginning. This sets them apart from the norm. Every other band grinds and screams, sound and fury amounting to absolutely nothing. So, when a band, this band, shows us both blow-dry power, and then slips into the nakedly personal "Something To Remind You," I'm onboard for "Staind." Note to self: all their other albums also sing. For those who have ears. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars An AMAZING hard rock album!!! *by S***9 on Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2011* Energetic, raw, and honest ... this is definitely one of the best hard rock albums of the year. Every track stands its own ground and comes out swinging. These are the sort of songs that made Staind popular in the first place; they make no compromises and knock you flat. Mike Mushok is an extremely underrated guitarist, and his work here provides some of the most potent riffs he has done for the band in years. The guy knows how to SHRED. Aaron Lewis is the most talented, intriguing rock lyricist since Scott Weiland ... although it's hard to pinpoint any single member of Staind as contributing more to the success of this record than another (*despite the arguments and turmoil which reportedly occured during the recording sessions, the finished album provides songs in which all the musicians seem to be working in gutsy unison*).There are a few ballad-type tunes, to be sure - the eerie campfire vibe of 'Something to Remind You' and the tragic slow-burn crush of 'Throw It All Away' - the sort of tunes that alienated a certain amount of Staind's fanbase when "Break the Cycle" exploded onto the charts many years ago. YET some forget that every Staind album has had slower-moving songs, even as far back as their heaviest offering, "Tormented" (see: 'Four Walls'). Tracks like 'Failing' and 'The Bottom' reach a level of chilling honesty which most new rock groups aren't brave enough to even attempt. Their influences on this particular cd are clearly and frequently apparent - comparisons can definitely be made to Alice in Chains, Limp Biskit, Helmet, etc. But these songs are so powerful and solid - and the lyrical content so unflichingly aggressive - that the similarities to other bands seem complimentary and fitting, as opposed to forced or cheap. Staind long ago came into their own in terms of musical/lyrical compositions, surpassing many similar bands that influenced them.Staind has staying power. They have released seven albums and outlasted the majority of their peers. I sincerely hope despite the dwindling support for hard honest rock records, this band will find a way to continue doing what they do. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars 7th album is one of their best, 4.5 stars *by G***$ on Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2011* Staind comes back with a very solid 4.5 star release for their 7th group album; after taking a break of 3years and a month since their last release (making it their longest break in between albums, barely). This is the 6th album of theirs that I own (I don't have their hard to find/rare self-released debut from Nov., 1996, "Tormented"). This one is definitely heavier/harder than their last few releases, but still not quite on the level of their earliest albums. As always you get some very good, deep & personal lyrics/songs as well as some that get you pumped. Shorter than most of their other works, with only 10 songs; you get 3 that are almost classic material, 6 that are good or real good songs, and 1 that I'd say is just average but nothing that I'd skip over & it can easily be listened to from start to finish without skipping any. Compared to their previous albums, I'd say its right up there with the best of them."Dysfunction" --- (4/99) --- 4.5 stars"Break The Cycle" --- (5/01) --- 5/4.5 star (probably my favorite of their albums)"14 Shades of Grey" --- (5/03) --- low 4 stars (my least favorite of theirs)"Chapter V" --- (8/05) --- 4.5 stars"The Illusion of Progress" --- (8/08) --- 4.5/4 stars#1 - 8.5#2 - 9.5#3 - 9#4 - 8.5 (a rarity for them where the lyrics are done hip-hop style)#5 - 9.5#6 - 9.5#7 - 9#8 - 8.5#9 - 8#10 - 7Aaron Lewis (vocals/rhythm guitar) -- b. 4/13/72 -- b.
