The discography of mewithoutYou, an American rock band,[note 1] consists of seven studio albums, a live album, seven extended plays or maxi singles, eleven music videos and twenty-nine appearances on compilation, tribute, soundtrack, and split albums or video collections. The band was formed in 2001 as a side project to The Operation by Aaron Weiss.[5] The debut extended play by mewithoutYou, Blood Enough For Us All, was released in 2000, the year before the band was officially founded. The official status of Blood Enough For Us All as a mewithoutYou release is murky.[6] The first undisputed release by the band was I Never Said That I Was Brave which was released on Kickstart Audio in 2001.[7] Over the next year, the band signed to Tooth & Nail Records and released their debut album, [A→B] Life.[3] The album is post-hardcore with shouted and screamed vocals.[8] In 2004, mewithoutYou released their second album Catch for Us the Foxes, which was their first album to chart, reaching number 13 on the Top Christian Albums chart.[9]
Brother, Sister, mewithoutYou's third album (released in 2006), was a turn away from the emo and hardcore punk influences of their earlier work and featured less abrasive vocals by Aaron Weiss.[10] Brother, Sister was the first mewithoutYou album to chart on the Billboard 200.[11] With It's All Crazy! It's All False! It's All a Dream! It's Alright in 2009, the band shifted genres entirely, recording an album that is almost entirely acoustic and has been compared to "campfire songs."[12] The band left Tooth & Nail Records in 2011 and released Ten Stories, a concept album about the crash of a circus train, on their own Pine Street Records in 2012.[13] Ten Stories was mewithoutYou's first and only number 1 album on the Top Christian Albums chart.[9] The band signed with Run For Cover Records in 2015 and released Pale Horses the same year.[14][15] mewithoutYou released both their seventh studio album, [Untitled] and their only live album, [A→B] Live, in 2018.[16][17] The band announced in 2019 that 2020 would be their last year as an active band.[18]

Notes
- ^ The genre of mewithoutYou has been described as post-hardcore,[1] emo,[2] indie rock,[3] and folk rock.[4] Additionally, due to the religious themes in some songs and four albums released on Tooth & Nail Records, mewithoutYou has been categorized as Christian rock or Christian punk, which the band denies.[1]
- ^ Blood Enough For Us All was released the year before mewithoutYou officially began and there is some controversy over if it counts as a release by the band. However, two of the people who played on the album are official members of the band and it was released under the name mewithoutYou.[6]
