Atreyu
Biography
Coming out of Southern California during the rap-metal explosion around the turn of the century, Atreyu crafted a sound much closer to Agnostic Front or Hatebreed. The metalcore quintet was formed by Brandon Saller (drums/vocals), Dan Jacobs (guitar), Chris Thomson (bass), Travis Miguel (guitar), and Alex Varkatzas (vocals). Their warped, detuned guitars are matched by pounding drums and acidic vocals, which give the material an edge otherwise absent from their sludge metal. Atreyu released various demos, including the seven-song EP Visions, in the late '90s before commercially debuting with the Fractures in the Facade of Your Porcelain Beauty EP on Tribunal in late 2001; the full-length Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses appeared the next year on Victory. Touring almost nonstop in support of the record, the group faced lineup changes as bassist Marc McKnight replaced Thomson before the recording of their follow-up. Atreyu's second full-length, The Curse, surfaced in June 2004 and went on to sell over 300,000 copies; it was re-released with an accompanying DVD a year later. The guys hit the road hard, playing 2004's Ozzfest and 2005's Warped Tour, in addition to headlining their own successful world tour.
They contributed a track to 2006's soundtrack to Underworld: Evolution and were near the top of the billing for the year's Taste of Chaos tour, alongside the Deftones and Thrice. Their next effort, A Death Grip on Yesterday, was issued in late March 2006 and hit number nine on the Billboard charts. Following a summer spent headlining the second stage at the year's Ozzfest, Atreyu jumped into the major-label waters over at Hollywood Records, leaving an early-2007 best-of collection as their Victory farewell. Their Hollywood debut, Lead Sails Paper Anchor, followed later in the year. In 2008, the album was re-released with bonus materials, including a DVD. ~ Bradley Torreano, All Music Guide
Selected Discography
Falloutboy?? ? Whatevs! And wow ysltioafl, I thought you were on the same team as Moomoo! Since you guys both share your hatred for...everyt h i n g . I guess I considered you, Moomoo, and Willow to be in the same category. SORRY! But I like to keep up with drama, and if it seems interesting I want to know what's going on...
|
||
I like all their music, be it from "Suicide Notes And Butterfly Kisses" or "Congregatio n Of The Damned"
What can you say, I'm a fan! |
||
lets hope the new album doesnt suck as bad as the last two!
|
||
atreyu is slowly getting softer and that does suck. these are a very talented group of guys that can do much better.
|
||
I loved Atreyu once but no longer. Slowly Atreyu is going soft on us, and it is very depressing
|
||
Atreyu, this band has always made me giggle. They used to be so scary when I was twelve, but now they are just laughable. I mean, these guys are nowhere as hardcore as say, Finntroll or Thrones of Dawn. But I must admit I bought their new album.

You know, when that plane crashed in PA, it left "the same material" scattered over a large area. Why would other planes exploding be any different?
|
||
Oh, and WTC7 fell down several hours later, not at the same time. It fell at 5:20 PM, and the Twins fell around 10:29 AM. Not even close! Firefighters watched it burn all day because they knew they couldn't save it, and worked on the people they thought they could save. You aren't even trying to work with the facts.
Dumbass, lol! |
||
Hmmm, the firefighters themselves say that the building was damaged and on fire, and they chose to ignore it due to bigger issues, and you're surprised it fell down. Why don't you run a car into your mom's house, set it on fire, don't let the firefighters near it, and tell me if it falls.
What's the word I'm looking for? Oh yeah, dumbass. |
||
"In addition, the firefighters made the decision fairly early on not to attempt to fight the fires, due in part to the damage to WTC 7 from the collapsing towers. Hence, the fire progressed throughout the day fairly unimpeded by automatic or manual suppression activities."
|
||
"It appeared that water on site was limited due to a 20-inch broken water main in Vesey Street. Although WTC 7 was sprinklered, it did not appear that there would have been a sufficient quantity of water to control the growth and spread of the fires on multiple floors."
|
||
Did you know that the world knew about the hijacking before they crashed? It's not magic, it's the news and the internet. In order to travel a distance, it takes time. Things can happen in that time. Once again, physics. Your middle school is really letting you down. You didn't know that a building could collapse if it was damaged and set on fire?
Dumbass. |
||
The only firefighters trained and experienced in jet fuel work at airports you dumbass. They go through special training. The ones at the WTC were not airport firefighters , they were city ones, and they are trained in explosives and other things that burn buildings. Apparently you know nothing about firefighters .
It wasn't reported in other countries before it happened, there's a time zone difference. It's not 9 in the morning everywhere at the same time. Get your head out of your a**. |
||
its not a bad movie. its real your f**k!. look up building number 7. and how come it was reported in other countries before it even happened here. the buildeing was blown up the same time and the same materials were found in the rubble!
|
||
to many of the wrong people profitted from 9/11 and not form oil!
|
||
then why are there testimonies of firefighters who saw and experienced materials only associated with explosives not jet fuel! NO! i do not believe that the politicians are intelligent its a bigger picture its the people who pay them or where they get there means that the taxpayers arnt giving them.
|

You SHOULD be asking the RIGHT question: Why are the same idiots who were in charge of security STILL IN CHARGE OF SECURITY?!? The same lazy idiots are at the same gates getting pay checks from the same company, but they have different shirts on. My in-laws flew in and had razors and lighters (with fluid), and know of people who take knives with them. But you distract everyone with your bad movie theory, and make a bunch of noise, and we are no safer now than before.
|
||
Here's the flaw in your argument: logic. IF the gov did conspire to blow them up, then Bin Laden has to work for the government. If that were true, then he would've been "caught" so Republicans would look good and win the next election. But he wasn't. He made a fool of the Reps, and the Dems now have majority in Congress, and the Dems are sending more troops to Afghanistan to continue looking for him. Not exactly as planned, huh?
|
||
But morons like you don't ask intelligent questions. You were raised on bad sci-fi movies and don't know the truth when it hits you. Everything has to be a conspiracy because you think the government is a well run business and politicians are highly intelligent beings, some of which may be aliens. My god, politicians are idiots that are controlled by money, and the gov is the most screwed up business to ever exist.
|
||
When a plane hit the fuel sprays everywhere and burns everything. Look at footage of other plane wrecks and you will see the exact same thing in every case. It's physics, and you can't get around that. The question you SHOULD be asking is why the government failed to stop it. Intel warned it was going to happen, and it wasn't stopped because people didn't believe it was possible, same as the Japs bombing Pearl Harbor.
|
||
You're a complete idiot. I watched it live. The planes hit and blew up the towers. You can see it plain as day, you just don't want to. You really think the government can plan on a plane hitting exactly where a bomb is at just the right time? They can't even do Cash for Clunkers without screwing it up.
|
||
oh yeah and WWIII look it up, the towers were blown up before the planes hit. you can see it plain as day. 9/11truthers . c o m i choose not to remeber that day as a day that terrorists attacked us. maybe if we finally consider the government as the true terrorists then ill remember it. the government should fear the people, not the people fear the government. . c

kinda gay? compared to your selection its heaven! your last comment said it all for me. nickelback sux bro. they were overplayed from the first song they released and all they do is play generic bullshit that radios stations like. that also sounds like everything you listen to!
|
||
nickel back is still here and goin strong.just sayim Camaro,they kicked a** not so much now but nickelback was the sit
|
||
A Death-Grip on Yesterday had to have been their best release, it lasted for a solid year in my playlist. Lead sails barely lasted 2 months, still good compared to the nickelback-e r a of disgusting music, but needed more variance like Death-Grip had.
|
||
dude this isnt emo and it aint emo.ive seen the s**t u listen to.its kinda gay
|
||
they were good before the Lead Sails album. it seems they sold out and started playin emo bullshit!
