  • Chart Displacement: They only had one Top 40 hit. It's not their Signature Song "Last Resort", but "Scars" (which is well-remembered, but not quite on the level "Last Resort" is).
    • They've had six #1 hits on mainstream rock, neither of which were the aforementioned songs. However, "Last Resort" was their only #1 hit on alternative radio.
  • Creator Backlash:
    • Before the band started getting big, they made a cameo appearance in a porn film called Backstage Sluts 3. Needless to say this was quite a sore spot for them years later when media outlets grilled them about it, with Jacoby Shaddix himself saying he "wish it never happened".
    • They also feel this way about their endorsement deal they did with Pepsi Blue.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: Old Friends From Young Years; Aside from a limited edition reprint for the fan club, the album hasn't had another official physical or digital release since.
    • Same with the 5 Tracks Deep EP, though two of the tracks off that did get remade for Infest.
