Springfield MA, United States (1995 – present)

Staind is a rock band formed on November 24, 1995 in Springfield, Massachusetts. After meeting through friends and covering pop hits of the day in smalltime clubs for a year and a half, Staind self-released their debut album, Tormented, in November 1996, citing influences in glam and brutal latin thrash metal. Until recently, the album was difficult to obtain, as only four thousand copies were originally sold. Since then, the band’s official website has released the album to meet the demand from fans.

During this time, Staind played a show with Limp Bizkit. When Fred Durst saw the controversial cover of the group’s self produced album; tormented, he tried to have the band kicked off the bill, but when he saw the band’s live show, he changed his tone and befriended them. Durst later sang harmonies on the live version of Outside, which was recorded at a Family Values Tour concert in Biloxi, MS, in late October 1999. Durst went on to be one of the executive producers for Dysfunction and Break the Cycle. He also directed a few videos for the band later on, including It’s Been Awhile.

Dysfunction

The band’s big break came in October 1997 after Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst witnessed the band open up for them at a Hartford, Connecticut show, eventually signed them to his Flip record label, and co-produced their 1999 breakthrough Dysfunction with Terry Date.

I'm wondering how many 10s of millions of listens Break the Cycle would have if LastFM was around when it came out. That album is legendary. It had elements of the newer sound of Staind while maintaining the old aggressive and rugged sound of the older material. Wish they could do that again...

There is nothing wrong with the song "All I Want" Learn to appreciate the band for thier talent. They can compose a great Power ballad just the way they write a great hard rock tune.

i618: Aaron Lewis himself called the song "All I Want" - accidental pop song, in an interview on iTunes Originals, what you want from the group?. In the first place - this sense of Aaron, should not demand too much from him. FuckHearts: I really like Staind-Ballads,too

So far I'm 7 tracks into the new record and it's been all ballads. Don't get me wrong, I really like Staind-Ballads. What I don't like is an album being announced to be darker and heavier than prior releases and then the album is basically their softest since the MTV unplugged.
