![]() It has a powerful bass and brilliant mid and high notes. Compared to their previous album I'd like to say that Brent Smith matured somewhat in terms of not overdoing the ballads like in the remake of "Simple Man" where at times he seemed to get carried away and overdo it to a point where it sounded tacky! I also found that this CD was recorded and mixed well, so that it will get the best out of your stereo equipment. ![]() To me leadsinger Brent Smith is mostly responsable for the mood and sound changes throughout the album. For me the album's sound marks a nice fusion of "Crossover" and "Old School Metal" with a range that will include everything between "Soundgarden" and "Pink Cream 69 (also PC69)". Producing Shinedown’s first 1 hit Save Me (held for 12 weeks), the album peaked at 23 on the Billboard Hot 200. "Us And Them" was my first Shinedown album and I was pleasantly surprised! I found bits and pieces from sounds of other bands that I like to listen to mixed well and executed brilliantly. Us and Them is Shinedown ’s 2nd studio album. Buy it here or better yet, go and buy it now at your local FYE, Best Buy, or Wal-Mart. Buy Us and Them AND Leave a Whisper! My preference is Us and Them but a lot of my friends like Leave a Whisper. Trust me, you wont regret it for a second. Whereas Sound of Madness is a harder, edgier mix of metal, punk and classic rock, this one is classic rock pretty much all the way through. If they come in a 200 to 300 mile radius of my house, I'll be there to see them perform! If you get a chance, go and see them! Tour dates can be viewed on their website You will NEVER forget the first time you see them live. The first Shinedown album I bought was The Sound of Madness, so Us And Them came as something of a pleasant surprise. I went to Atlanta to see them again on the Sno-Core tour where they co-headlined with Seether and that concert confirmed my love for them.

The day after the concert I went and bought Leave a Whisper and then I had to painstakingly wait for 3 months for the best X-mas present EVER! Us and Them has literally not come out of my CD player since X-mas and will stay there for a long time from now. Listen free to Shinedown Us and Them (The Dream, Heroes and more). In interviews about the album, Hale noted that the album was heavier than their previous album, but was significantly closer to the sound of them live.This is the most underrated band I have ever known. A different version of the song "Here's to Us" featuring multiple guests including Slash was included as a bonus track on the reissue version of the standard and deluxe version of the album in 2013. A deluxe edition of the album was also released containing three bonus tracks. Four of the album's songs were previously released on the sneak-preview EP Hello, It's Mz. The song "Here's to Us" was performed on the US television show, Glee, with clean lyrics. The song "Freak Like Me" was the band's first single to reach number one on the Mainstream Rock chart. The first single and video from the album "Love Bites " won a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance. The album was produced by Howard Benson, who also produced the band's self-titled debut album. is the second studio album by American rock band Halestorm.
