Break Up, Break Down is the first studio album by the Reigning Sound. It was released on May 15, 2001 by Sympathy for the Record Industry. The album was the band's second release, following their debut 7" single "Two Sides to Every Man," by three months. Its country-folk melodies stood in stark contrast to some of frontman Greg Cartwright's earlier work with bands such as the Compulsive Gamblers and the Oblivians, and set an early blueprint for the sound the band would explore on their subsequent releases. Break Up, Break Down featured the first incarnation of the Reigning Sound; Greg Cartwright on lead vocals and guitar; Alex Greene on organ, piano, guitar, and backing vocals; Jeremy Scott on bass and backing vocals; and Greg Roberson on drums.
