Slow and Deep Can Be Good

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2001
The Bottom Line: It's a big jump from thier other work, but Outside and It's Been Awhile are reason enough to buy it.
Review: Why This CD Joined My Collection
Staind has qualified as my favorite band for quite some time now. On the weekend before this CD was released, I seen Staind perform at a concert for a local radio station. I knew then that I had to have this CD...

- Staind attempts to break the pop cycle -

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: -
Review: I have been out of the rock/metal loop for too long. And I have the state of music in recent years to blame. Sugar sweet entertainers have owned the airwaves and MTV for some time now. The pop cycle comes and goes and if you haven't been in a cave...

Staind Bring Emotion And Songwriting Back To Rock.

Date of Review:  Jul 1, 2002
The Bottom Line: With Break The Cycle, Staind offers proof that good hard rock music is alive and well.
Review: I first heard of Staind back in 2000 just as their debut album Dysfunction was taking off. The song "Mudshovel" was receiving quite a bit of airplay on radio and MTV and the album was a huge success. I liked the single, yet the rest of the album...

What would you do if Staind did Break The Cycle?

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 2006
The Bottom Line: Should I turn it up for you? I sit here locked in my head, remembering what you said
Review: Although, I'm not a huge fan of Staind, I do enjoy their music. Sure, it isn't the best out there and it does put you in a very depressing mood after listening to them, but overall it's good stuff. One day, I went crazy and bought a few of the...

Can Staind Break My Indifference Toward Them?

Date of Review:  Sep 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: Break The Cycle is definitely worth a few spins. However, aside from a few lyrical excerpts that truly are gems, you won't find anything particularly incredible or innovative here.
Review: Around 2001, the rock band Staind began to rapidly rise in popularity. The reasons are endless, but the fact that they had memorable hooks and tons of radio-play appeal just may have had a thing or two to do with it. I recall clearly when Break The...

So much potential gone to Waste...

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2003
The Bottom Line: An album that gets lost in itself -- pick up the band's previous CD or wait for the next one.
Review: There was a lot of breath held over the release of Staind's Break the Cycle. The band was riding a dual wave -- an underground tide from the success of their heavy debut, Dysfunction, at the same time as they were enjoying pop radio success from...

Staind Clean Up a Bit But Remain Dark and Angry

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2009
The Bottom Line: Staind's biggest - but not quite best - album
Review: Springfield, Massachusetts rock quartet Staind gained some well-deserved attention with their 1999 album Dysfunction, but that was nothing compared to their runaway success earned by its followup, 2001's Break the Cycle.  This album spawned five...

Best Album of the Year shoots little below par

Date of Review:  May 16, 2001
The Bottom Line: Buy this CD, you won't be disappointed. But don't expect an onslaught of metal.
Review: Hello. I got a full copy of the new Staind CD two weeks ago so hey, here's my review. Please ignore my incorrect timeliness in article. I originally wrote this for a local newspaper that won't be printed until 31st. Also, below the review is some...

Aaron Lewis talented writer and singer!

Date of Review:  Sep 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: The music is wonderful, apart from Aaron Lewis tends to make the songs sound more depressing than they should be.
Review: Introduction:

I have read other people?s opinions such as Nic60 on this album- Staind- Break The Cycle and if I seen mixed reactions to it, some like it others just don?t seem to like it, personally I think this is a wonderful album with...

It HAS Been A While...Since I've Heard Something This Heartfelt and Emotional

Date of Review:  Dec 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: If not for System of a Down's Toxicity album, this would be the album of the year.
Review: I was wrong. There I said it. I was W-R-O-N-G about this band. I wrote them off, figuring they'd have a hit or two and disappear into the abyss with past one hit wonders like Marcy Playground (that my friends, was justice!), and Dishwalla. I didn't...
