Staind
Springfield, Massachusetts' Staind became one of the biggest rock bands of the early 2000s with Aaron Lewis's raw, emotionally vulnerable vocal delivery and the band's ability to shift between crushingly heavy verses and achingly melodic choruses. Their 2001 album 'Break the Cycle' debuted at number one and produced the massive hit 'It's Been Awhile,' one of the longest-running number-one rock singles in chart history. Though Lewis's solo country career often overshadows the band's legacy, Staind's catalog represents some of the most emotionally direct and commercially successful hard rock of its era.
