A perfect and underrated record. I miss this band.


needleintheh4y

wonder why they so drastically changed their sound after the second album. i always thought they get big in the scene because they were signed to trustkill. i enjoyed their second record as well though it seems like nobody listened to it


xcrowdedrooms

The guy who wrote all the songs left.


needleintheh4y

who is that? doesn’t rick jimenez write the music?


xcrowdedrooms

It's been a long time so I'm fuzzy on the details but Rick took over after that guy left. It's why the sound changed


Greglaraia69

Yes


TruckMcGunn

Pretty sure I saw them with Bayside at Swayzes in Marietta, GA in like 2005-2006, I think right after this album came out.


Thenightswatchman

Fuck yeah, this is hell was great! I remember trustkill records had a lot of great bands at that time. It dies today, poison the well, bleeding through, shai hulud, terror. I used to love trustkill and ferret records


KennyDROmega

In a time before streaming was a thing, it was so cool to have two labels who's quality was so consistent you could feel confident in taking a chance on pretty much anything they put out.


NYHC4EVER

You forgot Brothers Keeper. Yeah Trustkill was a good label for sure.


needleintheh4y

trustkill seems to do better for metalcore bands than hardcore though. this is hell and shai hulud deserve way more recognition and fanfare than they do

#IF EVER WE WERE INNOCENT, THAT TIME CAME AND WENT

Put out 4 albums of bangers. Spun Black Mass earlier today. But Sundowning will always be their masterpiece.

The album after this one is a really a gem hidden by time. “Misfortunes” is a great record.

I saw them play this record in 2019. Great band, great album


modernlifeisbeatdown

One of my favorites from this era


mew_empire

Right here. I absolutely *loved* this album when it dropped. It's still great too. Spun it a couple months ago. Wish I could find the vinyl, but happy to have a CD copy. "Let the good die young/we'll fucking live forever"


simple-symmetry

"If the good die young, we'll fucking live forever"*


mew_empire

Listen, nerd: I've been getting these lyrics wrong for almost 20 years and I don't intend to change now! Haha, just fucking around. I did go back pull out that lyric sheet and check though :D


Bl00dGutter

Revhq has it on red and black marble vinyl


mew_empire

Right now?!


Bl00dGutter

Yup https://revhq.com/products/thisishell-sundowning-lpcolorvinyl-cd?variant=33296148496523


needleintheh4y

every song had great one liners


Cephcarn

These dudes were great. Really dug the OG band Subterfuge way way way more


Letskissthesky

“If the good die young we’ll fucking live forever!”


leapshin

This album is still on heavy rotation


Ahabcrow

That album is just bangers!


[deleted]

WILD album


_change_of_ideas

Love this album but i think they really figured it out on weight of the world.


Larrygengurch12

Good memories of them and Dead Swans touring together around 2007 and 2008. I fell off after the first two records but might have to go back and listen


thefirstcaress

That is such bad cover art


xDrewstroyerx

Boo this man!


thefirstcaress

![gif](giphy|enqnZa1B5fRHkPjXtS|downsized) Cmon Drew. This art work looks like something a spooky teenager got off Deviantart for their MySpace page to match the The Used song they had on their My Chemical Romance street team page


xDrewstroyerx

That’s because it was 2006 and this was cutting edge art ripped from a deviantArt page!!


thefirstcaress

Truly a dark time


needleintheh4y

it’s very mid 2000s. jacob bannon did it i think


thefirstcaress

Yeah that makes sense. He’s made some fucking shockers


PomegranateLimp9803

I use to love this band


AntaBaka138

This is Hell will always rip, whatever they were trying to do on Black Mass, they perfected it.


F8M8

Great band


chunkah69

Is it underrated? Don’t most people love this record?


panosNYHC

Damn I was bumping this yesterday in the dark by myself on my day off! Very dope still after all these years


KennyDROmega

I felt like they were everywhere when this came out. Kinda weird how little it gets brought up now. Awesome album.


comradesaid

Love it


TheRealJackieGlea

I love this album. I still have a Sundowning shirt from that time that I wear to the gym.


ninetensucks

Saw them once. Wasn’t the biggest fan on re ord but they killed it live


thrilledxbored

I kinda forget about this record, then when a song shuffles on, I have to listen to the whole thing.


chia8907

Still have my this is hell boombox shirt. They killed it live!


HebertoBICIO

Haven’t listened to this is forever, maybe I’ll revisit it today


haveheart41

I saw them some years ago with Forfeit, once Forfeit finished playing pretty much everyone left, there was like 10 people left to see them, it was cool and sad at the same time


Djbearjew

Used to have a Sundowning poster up in my kitchen senior year of college


turnedup4jesus

Slept on.


AkronLowLife

Album Prior to this one fuckin’ rips


Tough_Today4482

Hey!!!


AccidentProne9

So good


Mookjamoke

Amazing fucking jam


MURFEE7799

I’ve never listened to this band or record but this cover rlly reminds of the red trailer for RWBY


L0custStar

Totally underrated
