The band released their second official album, "Unwind", in 2001. Their major label sophomore effort included the hit song "Are You There?". "Champion" became a theme about the sacrifice of firefighters during the September 11, 2001 attacks in New York City. The profits made off its single would be donated to aid the victims. During this time, the song "Bruised" was featured exclusively in "American Pie 2". "Jimmy Shaker Day" was featured in the 2002 blockbuster "Spider-Man". "Unwind" found considerable success but could not match the popularity of the band's previous album. It also gained both criticism and praise for its more varied musical style.
