* ReplacementScrappy:
** Played straight with Jason "Gong" Jones, a previously unknown singer who was there for the second album. To illustrate, the video for the song "Step Up" featured typical rock and roll excess (hot tubs, women in bikinis, etc.), which did not match well with the original lineup's style at all, much less the aforementioned song or the rest of the second album. As nice as it was to see the band return from a singer's death, the video sort of opened and closed the door on Gong's tenure at the same time.
*** Averted with Ryan [=Mc=]Combs, who seems to gel pretty well with the fanbase. It helped that [=Mc=]Combs was A) a free agent and B) came from a band with a similar sound ([=SOiL=]) when he joined. The transition to a third singer was seamless.
