Four Year Strong - "Just Drive"

[lockebox]

Lead single from their upcoming album "In Some Way, Shape or Form." Goes for adds September 27th.

I saw these guys open up for Rise Against and Bad Religion are were pretty damn good IMO. Glad to see that they have a single going for adds, although I wouldn't much stock in it doing well considering how pop-punk/screamo isn't charting much anymore.

First listen didn't do anything for me. Just feels like they're gonna forever be "scene" stars and never break through into the mainstream, like A Day to Remember kind of did.

ADTR had four singles hit the Top 40. One hit the Top 15, but yeah I have to agree with you. I really don't see them breaking out with Top 10 hits ever, but maybe go a few albums deep with some decent charting singles. Five to ten years ago, they have may had one huge hit like say Story of the Year did, but now in days, I just don't see that happening.

[Shadows in the Dark]

I can see this doing decently, seeing as how their music is similar to A Day to Remember.

Funny you should mention Story of the Year, 'cause this sounds very similiar to them. This is certainly the most commerically viable single they've released.

[American Idiot]

That really does sound like SOTY's early lighter stuff from "Page Avenue." Certainly more commercial than anything else I've heard from Four Year Strong before as well.
