Wikipedia:
Sevendust is an American alternative metal band from Atlanta, Georgia, formed in 1994 by bassist Vince Hornsby, drummer Morgan Rose and guitarist John Connolly. After their first demo, lead vocalist Lajon Witherspoon and guitarist Clint Lowery joined the group. Following a few name changes, the members settled on the name Sevendust and released their self-titled debut album on April 15, 1997. They have attained success with three consecutive RIAA gold certified albums, a Grammy nomination, and have sold millions of albums worldwide.
The self-titled album sold 311 copies in its first week. However, through touring and TVT support, the album gained charting success through Billboard and earned a gold certification. Since formation, Sevendust has released ten studio albums, earned additional charting success and gold sales certifications.

AllMusic Review by Neil Z. Yeung:
Almost two-and-a-half decades into their careers, melodic metal stalwarts Sevendust issued their 12th effort, All I See Is War. Building upon their general formula of pummeling sonic assaults elevated by frontman Lajon Witherspoon's soaring voice, the band continue their late-era evolution with a mature perspective, tighter delivery, and polished production courtesy of Michael "Elvis" Baskette (Alter Bridge, Chevelle), especially apparent on early highlights like "Dirty" and "God Bites His Tongue." Echoing contemporary releases from Godsmack and Lacuna Coil, All I See Is War is as potent and furious as anything in their back catalog, but still sets its sights on a future that is open to change (no matter how subtle). As with much of Sevendust's material, War sometimes runs the risk of sounding too homogeneous. Thankfully, Witherspoon's vocals have aged like fine wine and are so purely magnetic they can easily draw listeners back into the fold. The band -- Morgan Rose, John Connolly, Clint Lowery, and Vince Hornsby -- follow suit, honed into a formidably taut unit after a dozen albums. There's a palpable confidence in the moments where the band step away from their trademark sound and opts to stir emotions not with brute strength but sweeping beauty, like on the moving "Not Original" and tortured "Sickness." That assuredness also propels the album on traditionally straightforward ragers like "Medicated" and "Unforgiven" and muscular groovers "Cheers" and "The Truth." Long past their nu-metal early days, All I See Is War extends Sevendust's maturation with skill and conviction, at once comforting in its familiarity and fresh enough to hint at more to come.
