Style
The style of Back Breaker has proved to be somewhat a mix of their first two albums. They have returned to the heavier sound of A Chorus of Obliteration, while still keeping some of the southern elements of Temptation Come My Way. Lead vocalist Dave Bunton uses harsh screaming, growling, and yelling often, but also mixes in some singing. The band characterized Temptation Come My Way as being their "Black Album.",[7] while this album has moved towards their Pantera influences. Each of the album's song titles are based on Greek mythology storylines.[8]
The album cover was designed by Ryan Clark and features Mark Dugdale as its model.[9]
