Whereas groups like Staind move in a linear fashion from full-on rockers to ruminative power ballads, the four young men of 12 Stones instead take a page from the book of Nirvana, unabashedly moving back and forth between depth-charge nu-metal and melodic, contemplative moods within the space of a single song.

I love 12 Stones.
They are by far one of the best bands I know that gets very limited airplay which is so sad.
This album rocks!
