Switched, an American nu metal band from Cleveland, Ohio, carved a niche for themselves in the heavy music scene in the early 2000s. The group, initially named Sw1tched, emerged during a time when the genre was flourishing, bringing their unique blend of aggressive riffs and insightful lyrics to a dedicated fan base. They made their mark on the industry with their debut album, "Subject to Change," released in 2002. The album resonated with fans and critics alike, showcasing the band's energetic sound and deep thematic content, which often delved into personal and social issues. Their music was characterized by a dynamic range of influences, combining elements of hard rock, post-grunge, and alternative metal.

As the band evolved, they continued to connect with their audience through intense live performances and poignant recordings. More than a decade after their debut, Switched demonstrated their lasting appeal and musical growth with the "Ghosts in the Machine" series. "Ghosts in the Machine," followed by "Ghosts in the Machine 2," saw the band exploring new sonic territories without losing the core of their signature sound. Both albums serve as testaments to Switched's ability to adapt and refine their style while maintaining the raw authenticity that first garnered them their loyal following. Throughout their career, Switched has maintained a particular enthusiasm for probing the darker and more introspective areas of the human experience, all while rocking as hard as their peers.
