Awesome!!!, 13 Oct 2007
I loved Death Grip on Yesterday... but i love this album even more. Every single song stands out as brilliant. Each day you'll be humming a different one in your head. If you put it in your cars CD player, you cannot help but turn the volume up to near full and bash the steering wheel.
"Honor" is by far my most favourite song, but followed closely by "Lose It". For pure fun factor, "Blow" is awesome. You'll find yourself really shouting those words out loud with friends.
When you compare this album with, lets say, Suicide Notes And Butterfly Kisses, you'll barely recognise them as the same band. This is a good thing. Atreyu's sound has matured, they have a better mix of scream and vocals, and the songs are just far more catchy and better written.
Best album i have bought all year =)

Atreyu like you havent heard! INCREDIBLE!, 20 Sep 2007
The latest offering from Atreyu has more than proved to be worth the wait, from start to finish the album boasts a rollercoaster intense songs full of energy, catchy chorus's and proof of just how far this band has progressed in sound and lyrics.
With a lot less 'scream' than a lot of their previous songs the sound of the album is atryeu, but not quite like you know them, but they pull off such a dramatic change better than any fan could have anticipcated, even better the songs still smash you in the face with some of the finest damn riffs theyve produced.
Definately an album to satisfy veteran fans and entice a whole heard of new ones. Can't fault it!
Personal key tracks : Doomsday, Becoming The Bull, and Blow.

Evolution, 19 Sep 2007
I have been a hardcore Atreyu fan for years. The first song i heard was 'Tulips Are Better'. An amazing song. Since then i now own both EP's, and all the albums. The first album, 'Suicide Notes And Butterfly Kisses', was a huge step up just from their two EP's, a lot more singing with a lot more catchier tunes. 'The Curse' is by far my favourite album of them all with the extremely popular 'Crimson' and 'Right Side Of The Bed', although my personal favourite is 'You Eclipsed By Me', it held a much more personal feel to me. However, 'A Deathgrip On Yesterday'... was, as an overall album, terrible. It had standalone tracks that were brilliant, such as 'Shameful' and 'My Fork In The Road(Your Knife In My Back)'.
History lessons over, the new album, has progressed so much that not only do they sound like a new band with just a hint of the old, but it is so good that you just can't bring yourself to pull the CD out of the stereo. Even the cover of 'Epic' (and i hated the original) is done uniquely and with such a sound of originality, no-one could blame you for thinking it was their song. The best songs on this album are 'Doomsday', 'Honor', 'When Two Are One', and 'Slow Burn' - my favourite off the album. For me, i'm not too keen on 'Blow', i don't know why, just not too keen on it really.
As a closing point, if you're thinking about buying this album, it's almost definately worth investing in, a brilliant buy. Especially off Amazon, as you can get the enhanced versions with either 'Clean Sheets' or 'Epic'. If you love Atreyu, don't be afraid, this is just the next step in the evolution of the band, and what a huge leap forwards it is.
