(2000)|"Where We Stand" is the second album by American rock band
Yellowcard . It was released in 1999 (and re-released in 2004 and 2005).Ben Dobson (singer) and Todd Clary (guitarist) who left after this album had a lot to do with their sound of old. Dobson’s scruffy, rough-around-the-edges vocal approach gave this band some toughness that is quite different from their current incarnation. It was released by
Takeover Records , a label created by one of the band's guitarists, Ben Harper. It iscurrentlyout-of-print .Track listing
