Emotion Is Dead is the second studio album by American rock band the Juliana Theory, released on August 29, 2000, on Tooth & Nail Records. While touring in support of their debut studio album Understand This Is a Dream, guitarist Jeremiah Momper was replaced by Joshua Kosker of Dawson High. Shortly afterwards, the band had begun writing material for the follow-up album. In February and March 2000, the band recorded their next album, with producers Barry Poynter and frontman Brett Detar, at Poynter's Palace in Little Rock, Arkansas, The Detar House, and Poynter's spare bedroom and living room. Described as an alternative rock and emo release, Emotion Is Dead took elements from Iron Maiden, Radiohead, and the Smashing Pumpkins. Emotion Is Dead received favorable reviews from music critics, many of whom commented on the dynamic sound. As of 2003, the album and Understand This Is a Dream had sold a combined 150,000 copies. Preceded by a few tours of the United States, the release of Emotion Is Dead was promoted with a Us tour in October and November 2000, and an east coast tour in early 2001. "Understand the Dream Is Over" was released as the album's lead single on March 26, 2001.
