What are you listening to, heavy metal version ?

Sevendust is one of those bands that I've always known of (and heard a couple of songs from since some of them were featured in WWE programming in the 2000s) but never really got into. I stumbled upon their song "Enemy" on YouTube the other day, and, to my surprise, I really like it. I thought it sounded somewhat familiar when I heard it - it was actually the theme for the WWE Unforgiven PPV back in 2003.
I added the album it came from, Seasons, to my Spotify collection and was listening to it on the way to work today. I haven't gotten all the way through it yet, but I dig it so far. Since it's catchy and radio-friendly, it's pretty easy listening for me, and the album flows together nicely. Nu-metal like this isn't my usual cup of tea, but I think it unfairly gets a bad rap sometimes.
Naturally, this is the "clean" version of the song, since I like profanity in my music like the average little kid likes peas.

So, after raving over The Agonist's two newest singles, Burn It All Down and In Vertigo, I decided to listen to a couple of their albums for the first time in a long time this weekend - Prisoners, their last album with Alissa White-Gluz as lead vocalist, and Eye of Providence, their first album with her replacement, Vicky Psarakis.
Prisoners is as solid as I thought it was before - perhaps a little long-winded, but solid nonetheless.
Eye of Providence isn't nearly as bad as I remember it being, though. It starts off with the two or three weakest tracks IMO, which coincidentally were all singles. That must have been where I gave up on it last time, and that's a shame, because it's all uphill from the fourth track (I Endeavor) onwards. From the moment the opening riff of that song kicked in, I was like
