In November 2001, Sevendust released their third album Animosity , which went gold due to the success of the singles ” Praise ” and ” Angel’s Son “, which peaked at No. 15 and No. 11 respectively on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. “Angel’s Son” was a tribute to Lynn Strait , lead singer of Snot , whom the members of Sevendust were friends with. Strait died in a car accident in 1998. In addition to being re-recorded for Animosity , the song originally appeared on the compilation album Strait Up . The band made an appearance on Late Show with David Letterman playing an acoustic version of “Angel’s Son” featuring Paul Shaffer on keyboards.
