About
Dysfunction is the second studio album by American rock band Staind, released on April 13th, 1999, by Flip Records and Elektra Record. It is the band's first studio album released on a record label. Staind self-released their debut album Tormented in 1996. On October 23rd, 1997, the band met Limp Bizkit vocalist Fred Durst. Durst was initially appalled by Tormented's graphic artwork, and refused to sign Staind, but changed his mind after being impressed with the band's performance. Durst signed the band to Flip/Elektra and helped the band record Dysfunction. Staind promoted Dysfunction through touring and sampler cassette. Continuing, but expanding on, the dark alternative metal and nu metal sound displayed on Tormented, Dysfunction features a varied increase of singing and screaming, emotionally vulnerable lyrics inspired by singer Aaron Lewis' life, with a noticeable increase of melodic section. Although still similar to Tormented in tone, Dysfunction is more melodic, has an absence of lo-fi production, and, despite prominent moments of screaming, features more clean singing than Tormented. Critics compared Dysfunction to various band, including Korn, Coal Chamber, Spineshank, Nothingface, Deftone, Tool, and Alice in Chain. .
