Info zu 14 Shades Of Grey

What happens when an angry young man isn’t quite so angry anymore? Staind singer Aaron Lewis answers that question on this, the band’s fourth full-length album, a comparatively mellow set of tunes that builds on the more introspective elements of the multiplatinum-selling Break the Cycle. In keeping with the album’s title, Staind bypasses the red of rage and the blackness of misery for a more subdued tonal palette, which works well on songs that find Lewis wearing his heart on his sleeve, particularly the gentle “Zoe,” a tune dedicated to his infant daughter. Lewis is similarly thoughtful, though far less sanguine, on “Layne,” a dark, brooding song that looks back at the loss of Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley. But it's not as though Lewis is beyond elevating the emotional fever pitch: “Yesterday” is a particularly nasty laundry list of revenge on those who have done him wrong in days gone by. Far more textured than its predecessors -- but not without its moments of pedal-to-the-metal overdrive -- 14 Shades of Grey adds some much-needed color to an increasingly monochromatic hard-rock scene.

STAIND
is comprised of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Aaron Lewis, lead guitarist Mike Mushok, bassist and backing vocalist Johnny April, and drummer Sal Giancarelli. The band was formed in 1995 in their hometown of Springfield, Massachusetts. Over the course of their career, the band has released seven studio albums and eight Top 10 singles, selling over 15 million albums worldwide. Break The Cycle, released in 2001 and RIAA certified 5x platinum, featured the smash single, “It’s Been Awhile,” one of the most played songs in modern rock radio history, spending 20 weeks at Number 1. In 2019 after a five-year hiatus, STAIND reunited for some unforgettable festival performances, and a hometown reunion show at Foxwoods Casino in Mashantucket, CT where their upcoming album, Live: It’s Been Awhile was recorded.
