Two months after the release of ''Invitation to the Dance'', London/Sire Records went out of business due to major label Corporate Mergers . Despite this event, 40 Below Summer continued to play at venues where they could. After performing on the Jägermeister Music Tour with Drowning Pool , Coal Chamber , and Ill Nino , their fan base began to expand rapidly and they started to write material for The Mourning After . While 40 Below Summer started writing almost immediately after the release of ''Invitation To The Dance'', they threw out some fifteen songs before coming up with twenty-one that they reduced down to the final ten (plus a bonus track, "The Day I Died") for The Mourning After. Razor & Tie saw the band in February of 2003 , when they played in New York on tour with now label mates E.Town Concrete , and a deal was signed in June just as the band entered the studio to record. ''"We're not a nu-metal band," says Illidge firmly. "We have elements of nu-metal in us; we have elements of old school metal in us. We have elements of hardcore and straight-up rock and folk and even some jazz and funk. We don't want to be pigeonholed. We're an aggressive rock band, and rock explores a little bit of everything."'' {Link without Title} DISCOGRAPHY
