Tomorrow by SR-71

Tomorrow, SR-71's second album, came out on RCA on October 22, 2002, and it's the sound of a pop-punk band pulling the curtains shut. Where Now You See Inside bounced, this one broods, with heavier, darker guitars that drift toward nu metal and alternative rock. Butch Walker produced, and the title track, a top 30 hit, keeps the big hooks while letting the gloom seep in.

Mitch Allan, the singer and rhythm guitarist who was the Baltimore band's only constant, leads the charge. It was the first SR-71 record with John Allen on drums after Dan Garvin's exit, and the last with guitarist Mark Beauchemin and bassist Jeff Reid; Beauchemin left for personal reasons, and Reid lost his fight with lung cancer on June 11, 2004. "My World" later got a second life, re-recorded by Bo Bice with Allan on guitar and bass.
