They're a great live band as well, but my one criticism of the band is Mark's lack of stage presence. Most of the other dudes always look like they're having a great time and really getting into the music onstage, but I always get the feeling that Mark is just going through the motions, whether I'm watching a live video or I'm there in person. I know dude has back problems and shit and not everybody can go out and headbang and run around for an hour or so a night, but even looking at his face, he just looks bored.

Boring, bland, generic cliche metal at best. Just about all the obvious troo-metal stereotypes are present in that youtube clip. Sorry Metalsucks, if this is the kind of music you're pumping up then you have no place giving shit of any kind to Metallica......who would blow these guys clean off the stage (not that many fans would be watching Chimaira's set to see it). ewww.

He always has that "on the job"-feel about him. I'm all for being pro, but there's seems to be no feelings involved what so ever? Saw them in Oslo a few months back, and it was all the same, Hunter "On the job", and this was up close in a relatively small venue. Nice!

They were straddling the nu-metal fence at times with that record, but thankfully Chimaira completely went the other way in the metal direction. I think the band has evolved nicely and improved with each release. I just listened to “Pass out of Existence” the other day, and was shocked by how basic it seemed compared to the last few albums.
