Featured Rock Albums
2003
Shinedown
– Leave a Whisper
Shinedown’s Leave a Whisper is a raw, emotional debut, blending post-grunge grit with Southern swagger. Brent Smith’s powerhouse vocals drive anthems that swing between bruising riffs and vulnerable ballads. A mix of anger, hope, and catharsis, it still hits hard.
