MTV.com (http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1519506/20051229/throwdown.jhtml) recently wrote an article about Atreyu (www.atreyurock.com). Check it out for information on their new music video, new album, and the "Underworld:Evolution" soundtrack.
"Bands like My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy, those bands enjoying more success just helps bands like Atreyu. It's like trickle-down success for us. The more popular and acceptable those bands become, to a much smaller extent, bands like us become."--Alex
Bands like My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy, those bands enjoying more success just helps bands like Atreyu. It's like trickle-down success for us. The more popular and acceptable those bands become, to a much smaller extent, bands like us become.
It's entirely true, and it's what I've been saying for years.
Though I wish Suicide Notes Atreyu would get popular.. I don't dig their new sound, and apparently their "true sound" is more like the end of The Curse.. too bad.
Right Side Of The Bed and a few other new songs are good songs, but I very much prefer their middle style circa 2001-2002.
Side note: If Atreyu ever becomes like Underoath (ie, no old songs--especially Lip Gloss, since Underoath dropped Sun Sleeps) then I'm done with the band forever.

Atreyu needs to hurry up and break up. Why does it sound like Alex is vomitting when he screams?

Maybe Underoath were sick of playing old songs.
And if you've got the albums to listen to those older songs you like, does it really matter?

no its not because they were sick of it. it's because
1. they couldn't play them with the new members because they didn't know them and
2. they didn't want to be associated with the old stuff whatsoever, they'd rather be associated with the catchy crap they put out now.
and 3. if you've seen them play the old stuff live, you'll regret what you just said. do you even know their old stuff?

underoath dropped the old songs from their set because they were personal for dallas. they used to play when the sun sleeps with spencer, but im pretty sure it was to please idiots like you. it was pretty much out of respect.

Thats exactly what I was going to say. I remember asking Chris why they didn't play When The Sun Sleeps, and he gave me that answer.
