Post-hardcore/emo-pop quintette Hawthorne Heights came to life in the summer of 2001. Originally called A Day in the Life, the Dayton, OH, collective saw numerous batting order changes and shifting music styles sooner subsiding on its flowing formation. Composed of drummer Eron Bucciarelli, bassist Matt Ridenour, vocalist/guitar player J.T. Woodruff, and guitarists Casey Calvert and Micah Carli, Hawthorne Heights built their fan nucleotide on a solid monstrance and a series of self-booked national tours that saw them sharing the phase with the likes of From Autumn to Ashes and the Descendents. In 2003, they signed with Chicago label Victory Records, resulting in the 2004 release of their potent full-length debut, The Silence in Black and White. As the guys relentlessly toured behind it, the record album became Victory's highest-selling debut, spell their tip single, "Buckeye State Is for Lovers," slow invaded tilt radio, MTV, and teen hearts across the rural area.


Their follow-up, If Only You Were Lonely, as well as the DVD This Is Who We Are, arrived in 2006. Leading up to the album's waiver, Victory urged street team members to avail it debut above urban singer Ne-Yo, whose possess hyped handout came out on the same day. Questionable promotional tactics included rearranging stock displays to shroud Ne-Yo's record and make Hawthorne Heights' more big. Lonely debuted at number trinity on the charts, though, unsurprisingly, more than a few eyebrows were raised in the band and label's guidance. Regardless, the album continued to sell well, as its get-go single, "Locution Sorry," garnered airplay on many a modern rock candy radiocommunication station.


However, controversy came to a head in early August when Hawthorne Heights suddenly proclaimed that not only were they departure Victory Records (despite a contractual obligation of deuce more albums for the label), just also suing them all over respective issues including unpaid royalties and tarnishing their discover and relationship with fans over the aforementioned incident (the band claimed to have no noesis of the street team letter that was issued as though personally from them). In a statement issued online, the dance orchestra compared their fourth dimension at the label to being in an "abusive relationship" and straight attacked "greed driven" label chief Tony Brummel. As issues were sorted out behind the scenes (and Victory counter-sued the banding claiming they simply wanted to jump to a major), Hawthorne Heights continued touring nationwide and served as headliners on the fall 2006 translation of the democratic Nintendo Fusion Tour with openers Relient K, the Sleeping, and more.
