Set It Off is the debut studio album by Canadian Christian rock band Thousand Foot Krutch. Influenced by the nu metal band Limp Bizkit, the album was described by AllMusic as a "knockout punch" in the Christian hardcore genre. Some of the songs came from their 1997 independent album, That's What People Do. Critics consider it to be a nu metal and rap metal album.[1] [2]
This is the last album to feature guitarist Dave Smith, who left the band in 2002, and the only album to feature drummer Geoff Laforet, who left the band in 2001.
