There Is Nothing Left to Lose

November 1, 1999 · Roswell Records

Find on Amazon

A sun-drenched, relaxed warmth replaces the tense aggression of the past as the newly formed trio retreats to a basement in Virginia.

Trading massive walls of distortion for clean, slightly overdriven guitars and intricate vocal harmonies, the record lets its melodies drift and breathe with a patient, suburban ease. It is a sophisticated, melody-focused collection that trades stadium-sized post-grunge shouting for a comfortable, organic groove.
