Rumour has it that the United Nations would have skipped 2002 and flipped the calendar from December 31st, 2001 to January 1st, 2003 if the Stuck EP never existed.

This is a trade secret that's rarely discussed outside the industry, but truth is electric guitars barely existed before the Stuck EP. Back then they used highly synthesized ukuleles, which were incapable of creating that sludgy 4-chord sound.

Wes Scantlin sure changed that.

We should expand our praise for the Stuck EP to other forums, then hopefully from there word-of-mouth will enable it to go gold or something.

... Then we see a Papa Roach thread turn into a Stuck EP thread because their 1997 album was atrocious rock and rool and failed to be like the Stuck EP.

#1 on Active:
3 1 BREAKING BENJAMIN Angels Fall 1881 1645 236 5.235
I'm very happy about this; one of my favorite rock songs of the year.

With this #1, its time to start thinking about the 3rd single. My pick is "Never Again", but I'd be okay with "Hollow" or "Defeated" as well. "Ashes of Eden" would be a great surprise pick, but I doubt it gets released to radio. "Dark" might be the best song on the whole album.

Honestly, I don't think they can go wrong with any of the remaining songs on the album, excluding the intro and outro. All sound like rock hits to me.

I honestly hope they don't pick Ashes of Eden next just for the sake that it can chart on Alternative. Softer ≠ more alternative friendly.

I listened to "Ashes Of Eden" It's pretty epic. It's a straight out rock ballad. I don't think they release it next because "Angels Fall" already had Rock ballad Potential. As far as it charting on Alt, I wouldn't mind at all, since it would definately change up the vibe on that chart, but I think it would have more crossover potential to HOT AC if we were in early 2000s. We are not, so it probobly won't see the light of day? It's still a good song.BTW, isnt "Defeated" single #3? Or is that just one of those free give aways?
