Hawthorne Heights got together to play music they were passionate about and take a shot at being a full time band. Signed to Victory Records, their debut The Silence in Black and White was released in 2004, receiving gold record status during the summer of 2005.
The band's second album, If Only You Were Lonely was written partially on their bus during last summer’s Warped Tour. Musically, it "tests the limitations of the emo and screamo music genres, adding deeper and darker subtle guitars and a more diverse selection of material". So it's probably emo then.
