Which indie rock band's 2000 album 'Relationship of Command' was produced by Ross Robinson?

The story behind the answer

At the Drive-In released the 2000 album Relationship of Command, produced by Ross Robinson. It was the El Paso, Texas, post-hardcore band’s third studio album and was released on September 12, 2000, through Grand Royal, Fearless, and Virgin.

Recording began in January 2000 at Indigo Ranch Studios in Malibu, California, and lasted about seven weeks. Robinson was known for intense, unconventional production methods, and his approach helped capture the band’s combination of aggressive guitars, melodic momentum, emotive vocals, and surreal lyrics.

The album became At the Drive-In’s breakthrough, with “One Armed Scissor” serving as its best-known single. It was praised by critics and became one of the most influential post-hardcore records of the 2000s. The Mars Volta is an especially common mix-up because Cedric Bixler-Zavala and Omar Rodríguez-López later formed that band after At the Drive-In entered an indefinite hiatus in 2001.
