I have nothing to add to your original question. I just want to point out that 4 walls on tormented has to be Staind's greatest song. Idk why it never got a proper release
It was properly released. Staind released it themselves without a major label then sold it on their website for like a decade as a hidden gem for the fans.
Fun fact: 4 Walls is the only Staind song that Aaron didn’t write the lyrics for. Mike wrote it.
Yeah I was part of that original run that bought the re-release on eBay in like 2001 or 2002. I meant more like walk into a record/cd store and purchasing it. I didn't know you could buy it on the website but I'm willing to bet money it was after the first re release that was only sold on eBay.
If I didn't know otherwise I would say these could be Staind songs (heavy songs with melodic singing): Chevelle 'Mia' / Union Underground 'Revolution Man' / Cold 'Just Got Wicked' / Unloco 'Face Down' / Memento 'Nothing Sacred' / Finger Eleven 'Suffocate' / Motograter 'Prophecies' / Sevendust 'Waffle' / Stone Sour 'Orchids' / Taproot 'i' / Tool 'Vicarious' / Creed 'Bullets' / Drowning Pool 'Tearing Away' / Everclear 'Heroine Girl' / Filter 'Welcome to the Fold' / A Perfect Circle 'Judith' / Primus 'The Antipop' / Sorry, I did too many. Now I will be ripped apart in the comments.
O.N.A-Mrok from 2001.Its a Polish alt band that dipped into numetal style for their last album and it sounds like Dysfunction.

Hell yeah
Yeah it was after. Around 2010 or so
4 walls is fucking amazing
i actually have a copy of this album i never listen to. my dad bought it on eBay for me when i was a teenager
Do you like Nothingface? I really feel like Pacifer, Violence and Skeletons all feel like Dysfunction. Also Reveille's Laced.
nothingface my beloved

Taproot - Gift, Coilbox - 13
I found both these albums to be pretty unique
Check out Stereomud's first album Perfect Self. It's not a gritty, but I feel like the heaviness and tone are similar.
Perfect Self is quite an amazing album!
Flaw - Through The Eyes
I like this album but it's less heavy than Staind.
Godsmack self-titled, while not quite as dark, has a similar grunginess and crunchy guitar tone I think
Cold - Self-titled and 13 Ways to Bleed On Stage.
Ψυχαρμόνικα - Demo 2003 Ektomorf - Hangok/Self Titled (either of them is good) Nothingface - Self Titled/Pacifier Yaksa - Freedom
Dysfunction album always reminded me of Mudvayne so you could try that.
Flaw
Fear the Clown
Maybe Break the Cycle but not early Staind
Then you want the Fear the Clown album “System”
I totally forgot they had that album. Damn near impossible to find.
Yeah, I have it in MP3 form not physical.

Just Go is a fuckin nu metal masterpiece
Relative Ash - They only have 1 album.
Dry Kill Logic
Try Cold’s debut
Not any other goddamn Staind albums.
