Luckily, such is not the case with Staind, who owe some nods to Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst for career guidance. Durst encouraged vocalist Aaron Lewis to sing more and scream less, which proved to be a key factor in the band's development. The appeal of Staind lies in the purity and fierce emotional integrity of their music, traits seldom seen in heavy rock since Suicidal Tendencies and Pantera ruled the roost.Lewis's moonlighting as a solo acoustic performer in the band's lean years serves Staind well as BREAK THE CYCLE boasts a well balanced set of thrashy material ("Open Your Eyes" and "Safe Place") offset by more gentle rock ballads ("Fade" and "Suffer"). It is the impact of those ballads that sets Staind apart from their new-metal brethren. The radio-bound "It's Been Awhile" and full-band treatment of "Outside" strike universal chords, effectively capturing the bitterness of regret and facing reality with brooding hopefulness.

what can i say GREAT BAND IN HISTORY!!!!!!
HAHAHA got stained fans i love it my mum actually got me into this how embarrasing but anyways i am glad she did i love it
Why is this so low on the list? Staind is a great Metal band. I couldn't stop listening to these guys. I await the new album.
The album is alright...admitt it! The slow songs that get played on the mainstream radio are good, but I got into Staind because their first album was really heavy. Most likely one of the best cds that year. So I would say yes the cd is good but if your looking for the mudshovel band, it's just not there anymore.
staind is the best band ever yhow could you ppl not realize their greatness!!! i just went to their concert it was AWESOME!!
Staind has potential but I still think 'Break the Cycle' was a bit repetitive, at least for my tastes (with the noted exception of 'It's Been Awhile'). It should be interesting to see what direction they take with their next release.
An amazing album by one of the few good mainstream rock bands.
Amazing CD. Not as good as Dysfunction, but still damn good. Staind is a great band.

Break the Cycle [PA] (CD - 2001)
Probably the worst band to ever sign a recording contract.
