Sevendust singer Lejon Witherspoon knows some fans may complain that his band failed to stay true to their heavy metal ethics by showing a more melodic dimension and — gasp — even including a ballad on their new CD, Seasons. Without wanting to express any bitterness for those who might hold that opinion, Witherspoon had a message to those who decry this shift in Sevendust’s music.

Aside from contributing "Pieces" to the Saw II soundtrack, Sevendust has seen huge success in its short life. The nu-metal stars gained millions of fans after appearing at Ozzfest, and their self-titled debut went gold. They've toured with Metallica and Korn, to name a few, and now they're headlining in support of their latest release, Alpha. Get your thrash on and see this band.

Once again Sevendust not only performed their famous hits, they ... focused in on some newer material from Next which is not only a smokin' CD, its perhaps the finest works from this band to date. Opening the sizzling set with two Tracks off of Next with " Hero " and " Ugly " to superior tracks of " Black " , " Trust ", and " Praise".

In December of 2004, Sevendust began to experience the druthers of so many other bands, when guitarist Clint Lowery left the band to pursue other projects. But the slot was soon filled by Sonny Mayo, formerly of bands such as Snot and (hed) PE, and with the addition of Mayo seemed a new-found energy and attitude of hardcore that seemed to seep from the band over the seven years of the same line-up.
