A masterpiece that marks a turning point in their journey towards a more profound sound
This album marked a turning point for the band, as they shifted from pop punk to heavier rock, incorporating socially conscious themes and a more metal-influenced approach, and established their international reputation with hits like "We're All to Blame" and "Pieces."
This album came at a time when their musical style underwent a major transformation, incorporating elements of intense guitar riffs and melodic hardcore, laying a new foundation for the band. Significantly, it achieved commercial success, reaching number 10 on the Billboard 200. "We're All to Blame" was used in the film "Godzilla: Final Wars," and "Pieces" has become one of the band's most iconic songs. The cohesive ensemble of the four members, including Derrick, powerfully embodies the serious mood of the time.
