STAIND: 'The Singles: 1996-2006' CD, 'Staind: The Videos' DVD Details Revealed

October 18, 2006

Flip/Atlantic Records has announced details of STAIND's first-ever hits collection, "The Singles: 1996-2006". The album arrives in stores on November 14. A separate companion DVD, entitled "Staind: The Videos", will be released simultaneously.

The 16-track album will feature such #1 rock radio smashes as "It's Been Awhile", "For You", "So Far Away", and "Right Here". In addition, it will include never-before-released live acoustic cover versions of PINK FLOYD's "Comfortably Numb", ALICE IN CHAINS' "Nutshell", and TOOL's "Sober", plus a live acoustic version of "Everything Changes". The version of "Outside" appearing on the album will be the version that originally appeared on the "Family Values Tour 1999" album with Fred Durst.

"Staind: The Videos" will include two bonus videos recorded live, in addition to a complete collection of the band's music videos.

With worldwide sales of over 15 million records, STAIND's last three albums have entered The Billboard 200 in the #1 spot. 2005's "Chapter V" has been certified RIAA platinum and features the single "Right Here", which marked STAIND's fourth #1 rock radio track. Earlier this year, the band performed for a TV audience of more than 14 million viewers at the Indianapolis 500.

"Tormented", STAIND's self-released debut, came out in 1996, and, playing the New England area over the next several years, the quartet came to the attention of Flip Records. "Dysfunction" was released on Flip/Elektra in 1999, achieving platinum-plus status thanks to songs like "Just Go", "Mudshovel", and "Home". "Outside", which originally appeared on the "Family Values Tour 1999", became STAIND's first mainstream rock hit and was included on the band's next album, 2001's "Break the Cycle". The latter entered the Billboard 200 album chart at #1 and has sold more than eight million to date. The songs "Fade", "For You", "Epiphany", and "It's Been Awhile" made the band certified superstars, with "It's Been Awhile" spending 16 weeks at #1 on Billboard's Modern Rock chart. A gold-certified "MTV Unplugged" DVD followed in 2002, with 2003 seeing the release of the critically acclaimed "14 Shades of Grey", which was praised by the New York Post for its "intense, propulsive melodies" and lauded as a "slow-burn collection" with "staying power."
