Long Title is a disambig.


* LongTitle: These guys were doing it before {{emo}} and {{metalcore}} picked up on it. They dropped it on ''Start Something'', but once they went in a more emo-inspired direction, the habit came back.

* MistakenForPedophile: When Ian Watkins was convicted of his crimes, H from the British pop group Music/{{Steps}} was attacked on Facebook and Twitter because ''his'' name is also Ian Watkins.



* NewSoundAlbum: ''Liberation Transmission'' saw the band move from AlternativeMetal to AlternativeRock / PostHardcore, had [[LighterAndSofter more polished sound]], removed scratching and samples and featured only very little screaming. Naturally, [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks some older fans were not pleased]]. Their subsequent two albums then combined the elements from this one and previous albums.
** To a lesser extent, ''Start Something'' is also this. Jamie took over screaming duties from Ian, creating the familiar VocalTagTeam of later albums, keyboards made more frequent and integral appearances, and scratching, while still prominent, tended to be placed in specific places on songs rather than being spread out over the entire track. The album also featured more guitar solos from Lee Gaze, heavier and lower-pitched guitar tunings, and the songs were consistently either AlternativeMetal or AlternativeRock, rather than the genre-hopping NuMetal of ''Thefakesoundofprogress''.

* WordSaladLyrics: Downplayed on ''Thefakesoundofprogress''. While the lyrics clearly have themes, Ian's lyrics got pretty abstract sometimes.
