Commencement is the second
studio album and
major label debut by American
rock band
Deadsy, released on May 14, 2002. After initially being suspended upon distribution changes at
Sire, the album was officially released through
DreamWorks under the Elementree sub-label. It includes the single "The Key to Gramercy Park" which gained minor attention for its
music video. Despite featuring various guest musicians and the support of popular industry figures such as
Jonathan Davis and
Fred Durst,
Commencement was a commercial disappointment, and Elementree folded shortly after.
