Hell Songs is the second studio album by American rock band Daughters, released on August 8, 2006, through Hydra Head Records. Despite keeping the band's earlier mathcore sound, it employs a completely different vocal style, as none of Marshall's screamed vocals that were prominent on the aforementioned material are included on the record.
