They released their Tooth & Nail debut album, 'Albatross', in 2006. It marked the fastest first-week sales for a new artist in the history of T&N. The band members are Matt MacDonald (vocals), Justin DuQue (guitar), Robert "Cheeze" Negrin (guitar), Alan Clark (bass), and Paul "Skip" Erickson (drums).
While touring in support of their full-length album Albatross, the band created the Acoustic EP: Seattle Sessions, which was simply a compilation of songs they created while on the road.
Their next album, 'The Silver Cord', was released on July 22, 2008. With the album being based on the realities of life and death, it signals a move into an alternative genre for TCC. Exactly 5805 copies of 'The Silver Cord' were sold in the first week. 5805 is a significant number because it is a song title on the album and it is the address of the house where the band formed and began to break out.
In 2010, 'Vagabonds' was released.

I'm Not Done With You Yet
The Classic Crime Lyrics
Life
Life can be
Life can be senseless
Life can be
Life can be senseless
I try to make sense of it
Flashing fake smiles at my friends
Beats defenselessness
I cannot clean up the mess without making more (making more)
It's time to settle the score
I can't be charming if you can't be charmed
If you gave me everything I want I will disarm
You are the only one who can stop me from giving up
And just my luck
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
You always have the fall before the lift
Whether you drink to remember or drink to forget what you did
I am the closest thing to a modern day poet fraud
But I met God in a velvet Elvis painting that I painted myself
In a bar where I was pulling off the bottom shelf
When I had to quit before I killed myself
I met him there
And I was scared
And so I asked God if he could fix my flaws
And he said I gave them to you
I know they are killing you
But I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet (you yet)
Oh, I can be a wreck with my friends to act impressive
I can drink too much and then curse away the sadness
Ranting like a lunatic walking with a bottle of wine (bottle of wine)
And I'm not fine
Because I spent ten years on the road
That made me different
I created new patterns of the thought
Got a new perspective
I was just once immigrant son of a silenced preacher's wife
But black and white both died
So I asked God if he could fix my heart
He said I gave it to you
I know it's broken in two
But I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I once met God in an apartment floor and said "I give it to you, I've got nothing more"
And I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet (oh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
Life can be
Life can be senseless
Life can be
Life can be senseless
I try to make sense of it
Flashing fake smiles at my friends
Beats defenselessness
I cannot clean up the mess without making more (making more)
It's time to settle the score
I can't be charming if you can't be charmed
If you gave me everything I want I will disarm
You are the only one who can stop me from giving up
And just my luck
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
You always have the fall before the lift
Whether you drink to remember or drink to forget what you did
I am the closest thing to a modern day poet fraud
But I met God in a velvet Elvis painting that I painted myself
In a bar where I was pulling off the bottom shelf
When I had to quit before I killed myself

And I was scared
And so I asked God if he could fix my flaws
And he said I gave them to you
I know they are killing you
But I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet (you yet)

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I'm not done with you yet (oh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet
I'm not done with you yet

This song gets me through quite a lot. My marriage has been rocky for almost a year, but this song reminds me of the Love shown to me and how I should love as well.

I grew up listening to you guys as a kid and teenager. I always loved your music and resonated with it in a deeply spiritual way as a Christian. I'm 29 now, still a Christian and recently rediscovered your music and there's a lot of nostalgia. These lyrics resonate in ways now I would've never imagined, understood and grasped back when I first discovered you guys. Thank you for your raw honesty. Thank you for being so transparent in all of your lyrics in all of your music on how you fall short, the love and grace of God despite your shortcomings, your honest observations of the world and it's people and the hard truth that most people are afraid to say out loud. I am in a season of working through a new "layer" of trauma I experienced as a child and young adult and shame has accompanied me all throughout this journey, along with wondering if the pain will ever stop being so extreme. I had never heard this song until a few months ago and I believe God brought it to me at just the right time to remind me of exactly what your song says, that He is not done with me yet. This song brought me so, so many tears of hope the first time I heard it and it continues to every time I listen. It has been a breath of fresh air and a relief for my heart knowing that I have not wearied God with my pain and struggles and that he reassures me that He is not done with me yet. And I too can still somehow come to him and tell him also that I am not done with Him either. I believe this song is one of the many means in which he is bringing about His healing in me. And for that, I thank you so deeply and so sincerely. Because of this song, I continue to rediscover to new depths, understand and experience the love and tender patience Jesus has always had for me. Thank you.

I love you guys. Your records are so special to me. I am grateful to be a part of your journey and so you a part of mine. I feel like you are able to navigate the paradox of God and Science into a coexistance that is logical.

@Dude Mane only fools say that there is no God
