Hello Rockview

Hello Rockview

Hello Rockview is their third major album. It was released on October 6, 1998, and is their second and final <br>album on Capitol Records. The album was recorded at Mirror Image Studios in Gainesville, Florida, once again with<br>producer Howard Benson. The album is dedicated in memory of 'Niki Wood.'<br>Hello Rockview was re-released with <br>Losing Streak as a double album in 2000. <br>Hello Rockview is considered by many to be the band's strongest album, and features a number of perennial favorite <br>songs, including 'All My Best Friends are Metalheads.' Though never made into a music video, the album's song<br>'History of a Boring Town' received a decent amount of radio airtime and made its way to #39 on the Billboard <br>Modern Rock Tracks Chart.<br>The CD booklet gained some notoriety for being in the unorthodox format of a comic book. Illustrated by Steve Vance<br>(who would later illustrate the song artwork for 'The Ghosts of Me and You' on Anthem), the comic is stylistically similar to Dick Tracy. Each page is a separate song, with all dialog, thoughts, and captions being the lyrics<br>to each song. The lyrics themselves all appear in proper order, but the order of the individual songs is different from<br>that of the track list. The brand new reissue on Sleep It Off Records contains the same track-listing as the original release but also comes with a bonus DVD of the full record being played live from the Florida record show plus a few other extras...
