Labor Day weekend is usually the last big summer hoorah for most Michiganders. A weekend that many close down their cabins, and hit the lake one more time with their family, or finally check off the final things on that list you made back in the spring that you would do over the summer.

Shinedown Albums Ranked

The early 2000s brought a wealth of upstart hard rock bands that would come to impact radio over the next decade-plus. One of those acts to truly dominate the airwave was Florida rockers Shinedown.

The band enjoyed a slow-building success off their debut disc Leave a Whisper, built upon their audience with Us and Them, endured a lineup change and came out bigger than ever with The Sound of Madness and continue to be one of the biggest rock bands going with such albums as Amaryllis and Threat to Survival. But which of these albums ranks as their best work?
