Product description Sevendust ~ Sevendust .com At first it sounds like Living Colour vocalist Corey Glover was spliced into a joint project between Faith No More and Testament, but the longer Sevendust's self-titled debut album plays, the more it takes on its own life. The Atlanta, Georgia band is well schooled in thrash metal, but it has a soft spot for sing-along melodies and more than a passing interest in hip-hop. Cobbled together, the results could sound fractured and divisive, but Sevendust's surging wah-wah guitars, razor-edged riffs, bloodcurdling screams, and soulful vocals blend together as smoothly as strawberries and rum. --Jon Wiederhorn

Finally..Sevendust on Vinyl!!
I'm glad Sevendust finally released an album on vinyl, although the band had nothing to do with this release from what I undrestand. I hope they will release other albums on vinyl as well. I love this debut album and having it on special edition yellow vinyl is a nice addition to my record collection. I love this band and will buy anything they release :)

One of a kind, even 18 years later.
When I heard this album the first time, around 1997, I didn't know exactly what to think about it. 'Terminator' was a heavy track with a strange lyric delivery. Then off and on through the remainder of the album Lajon Witherspoon went back and forth with melodic, almost soothing tones to screaming again. Everyone back then that I talked to said they weren't heavy enough or they were too heavy. Whatever it was, I thought it was awesome. I am still a huge Sevendust supporter today. I often think of them as one of the first bands that opened the door toward what became known as 'metalcore'. Not that they are as heavy as metalcore became, but because they were all at once heavy and continuously switching between clean and harsh vocals.

Self-titled and Home FTW!
Why couldn't Sevendust have stayed this way? They used to be so much heavier than they are now. The songs on the self-titled and Home albums are songs that you will hear nowhere else. They were original, deep, and dammit, they were heavy! So much different compared to the emo band that Sevendust has become.

Money Well Spent - A must buy for any Nu Metal fan - Delivery was fine
I really wanted to write a review on this album as this is probably the best nu metal album out there in my opinion from the late 90s era. Definitely Sevendusts bronze era (but still awesome mind you). Firstly the tracks are marvellous, the album doesn't die down so your money is going towards constant noise throughout! Sevendust's style is unique as many fans will tell you and this album is the birth place of that style we've all learned to love. The same style overall is there, it's just that the album may seem muddy when listening on small outputs such as headphones or laptop speakers (definitely made for low end speakers such as in a car or sound system). The vocals often dip in and out of clarity but in my opinion it is not about expensive mastering and compression like todays music, it is about emotion and talent. It is clear a lot of hard work went into making this album and I hope people buy it (I'm sure there aren't many new ones left around now). I was born in 95 so i missed the whole start of the 'nu metal' era but I've bought this in 2015 and I must say this is musical wonderment :D
