1997 studio album by Godsmack From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
All Wound Up... is the debut album by American rock band Godsmack.[2][3] It was released independently through the band's own record label, E. K. Records Company, in February 1997.[4] The album was pressed four different times before being picked up by Republic Records/Universal Records in June 1998.[4] It was slightly edited and remixed (with some unlicensed samples removed), fully remastered and given a new artwork and layout, and re-released by the major record labels as Godsmack in August 1998.[2][3][5] The band never considered this to be a demo release; they considered it the same release as Godsmack.[2][3][5]

According to the album's liner notes, frontman Sully Erna performed all of the drums on the album because the band's original drummer, Tommy Stewart, had departed before the recording session.[6] The band's second drummer, Joe D'Arco, only joined after the album was recorded, though he later recorded the bonus track "Whatever" with the band in February 1998.[6] When D'Arco was fired in April 1998, his name was not removed from the 1998 re-presses of the album, but Stewart was eventually given credit when the album was re-issued as Godsmack.
Four different versions of this album exist. The first and the second edition only differ because of a member misprint in the booklet. The misprint of the first edition mentions "Tony" (Rombola) also on drums. That's corrected in the second edition, where you can read "Joe" (D'Arco) on drums. The third edition's characteristic feature is an added bonus CD with the track "Whatever" included on it. The fourth edition differs from all the others in two cases: The hidden track at the end of the eleventh track, "Witch Hunt", is removed and a twelfth track, "Whatever" (also not mentioned elsewhere on the release), is added. "Going Down" later appeared on the soundtrack to the film Mission: Impossible 2 as well as the band's second studio album Awake.
Beside slight overall differences concerning the mix, there are some more significant differences between All Wound Up... and Godsmack.
