'''Red''' is a [[Christian metal|Christian]] [[alternative metal]] band from [[Nashville]], [[Tennessee]], signed to [[Essential Records (Christian)|Essential Records]]. The band's first album, ''End of Silence'' (released [[June 6th]], [[2006 in music|2006]]), includes the singles "Breathe Into Me" and "Already Over."

Red's music is characterized by heavy, angst-asserting instrumentation (à la [[nu metal]]), and backing [[piano]], [[String instrument|strings]], and [[Industrial music|industrial]] beats. This technique is often compared to [[Linkin Park]]; one member states that "it is fine with us to be compared to Linkin Park, who sold 27 million albums last year."
