Felony is the third full-length album by metalcore band Emmure under the Victory Records label. It was released on August 18, 2009. The album debuted at #60 on the Billboard Top 200 selling roughly 8,000 copies in its first week. Felony is also the first album to feature new members Mike Mulholland on guitar and Mike Kaabe on drums, replacing founding members Ben and Joe Lionetti, respectively.
The album is the first by Emmure to draw on more of a nu metal influence than their previous albums, evident of more frequent rapped vocals and simple downtuned guitar lines. The band, however, returned to more of their previous sound with the release of Speaker of the Dead, while still keeping elements of nu metal.
