Balllads by bands that don't normally do ballads

I remember a guy telling me (and insisting!)that the song "shades" by Echolyn(from their very first album)is a ballad. He was trying to tell me that despite it's length it's still very much a ballad. Sorry but I'm not buying it. Maybe he was able to convince himself but in my mind it's a mini epic with different parts to it and doesn't qualify as a ballad imo.
