Lifehouse is the self-titled third studio album by pop rock band Lifehouse. It was released in 2005 on Geffen Records.

It debuted at #10 on the Billboard 200, selling 63,000 copies in its first week of release and was certified Gold by the RIAA on September 7, 2005.[5][6] Lifehouse has sold 960,000 units in the US as of November 2009,[7] and over three million worldwide to date.[citation needed]

Background[]

The album saw a shift in Lifehouse's sound. It notably featured less of the angst-ridden post-grunge sound of their previous two albums, and marked their first album to adopt the lighter, more radio-friendly adult pop rock sound prevalent in their subsequent albums. Tracks such as "We'll Never Know" feature more post-grunge flair, while the albums two lead singles "You and Me" and "Blind" lean towards pop rock.
