Produced by Brendan O’Brien (AC/DC, The Killers, Bruce Springsteen), the album produced two hit singles – “Down” and “Sour Girl.” The ultra-heavy “Down” garnered the band a GRAMMY® Award nomination for Best Hard Rock Performance. The music video for the Billboard Hot 100-charting “Sour Girl” was in constant rotation on MTV and VH1, and earned the band a VMA nomination for Best Cinematography. Both songs became Top 5 Mainstream Rock hits for the group.
In addition to the the album’s two hit singles, other songs like “Heaven & Hot Rods” and “No Way Out” also dominated the radio waves.
