American emo/post-hardcore band from Dayton, Ohio (formed 2001). Early success with The Silence in Black and White (2004) and the single Ohio Is For Lovers. If Only You Were Lonely (2006) leaned pop‑punk; Casey Calvert died in 2007; Fragile Future (2008) reflected that loss. Subsequent releases include Skeletons (2010), Zero (2013), Bad Frequencies (2018), and The Rain Just Follows Me (2021). Originally associated with Victory Records; previously known as A Day in the Life.

Reviews praise Hawthorne Heights’ catchy melodies and emotive choruses while noting repetitiveness and commercial leanings. The Silence in Black and White is seen as a hook-filled debut; If Only You Were Lonely shifts toward pop-punk with fewer screams but is called homogeneous. Fragile Future is described as more mature, reflecting on Casey Calvert’s death and softening the screamo edge. Standouts cited include Ohio Is For Lovers, Niki FM, Saying Sorry, and Sugar In The Engine.
