Until Your Heart Stops is the debut album by metalcore band Cave In. It was released in 1998[1] on Hydra Head Records. Until Your Heart Stops has been regarded as a landmark release in the metallic hardcore genre.[3]
Background
Despite being the band's second full-length release, Until Your Heart Stops represents the first time Cave In went into a studio to record a full album together. The album also marks the first time they would play as a four-piece, as it was recorded in the midst of a major line-up change, going through two vocalists and one bassist.[1]
The actual writing of the album took place during the recording sessions of Cave In's previous release, compilation Beyond Hypothermia, which was a collection of Cave In's older songs, which they re-tracked, and in some cases, re-recorded.[1]
Musical style
Until Your Heart Stops has primarily been described as a metalcore album.[4][5] The album also features influences from other musical genres such as emo, noise rock and space rock.[6]
Deluxe edition
On February 17, 2023, Cave In announced a deluxe edition reissue of Until Your Heart Stops. This edition features a remastered version of the album along with previously unreleased demos and alternative takes. The deluxe edition was released on March 31, 2023 through Relapse Records.[7]
