Not sure about what single they're going to choose, but after one listen, holy shiskabobs this album is awesome! Yep, it will end up being one of the best rock albums of the year. |

It's still too early to make that claim.

Possibly a #1 album on the way. They should send "Faceless" to rock asap!

I don't think it would be a good single choice, but "Feed The Machine" is probably my favorite song on the album. What a kickass opener to the album, which I had on nonstop at work today.

In February? Perhaps. I actually prefer "Innocence & Instinct" by a distance. "Until We Have Faces" is still pretty sound, though.

Until We Have Faces could go #1, according to Hits Daily Double. only thing standing in the way: Nicki Minaj

Haha well with this album going to #1 on the BB200, you'd think Red's label might start at least trying a little bit harder to push a track at active rock radio, right?

Or, since this strategy has treated them pretty well, maybe they won't, lol. I kinda wonder if it has anything to do with them currently being on a Christian tour (which I'll be going to tomorrow). Plus, since they're not one of the big names, they only play four songs a night. So, they're playing maybe two new songs per show to a Christian-only audience. I wonder if they're waiting for a more mainstream tour to throw a rock radio single behind. |

I can't for the life of me figure out why Red doesn't push their stuff to rock radio harder. Any of their singles would probably do well on it. I think "Buried Beneath" would tear the charts up.

it seems likely that what they're doing is what Daughtry and Lifehouse did. Daughtry's self-titled debut album had rock singles. next album, none. Lifehouse's first two albums had rock singles. next three albums, none.

Lifehouse's first two albums had rock singles. next three albums, none. I don't see how you can compare those two bands to RED. Lifehouse did follow-up their second record to rock, but radio didn't buy it, ever since then they've been pop-leaning + the sound of alt. radio has changed. As for Daughtry, RCA pushed their follow-up mainly to HOT AC. The choice of lead single also did them in. "Faceless" could be huge if they pushed it... following up a #1 album, aswell? They have a lot more potiential on rock than Daughtry & Lifehouse ever had. |

I thought it will be almost impossible to top their last album "Innocence & Instinct" but this new one is also an outstanding album, probably my favorite song from the album (Best Is Yet to Come) won't get a chance on rock format, but the lead single and songs like "Buried Beneath", the early leaked "Feed the Machines" and "Lie to Me (Denial)" can do a really good job.

I think Lie To me (Denial) would be the most succesful single it's #4 on the itunes rock charts at the moment the best selling songs from an album are always a good indicator of what should be the next single. However just about any song from this album could be a pretty good single on the right format.

"The Best Is Yet To Come" is such a beautiful song. If any of their singles have potential to get national airplay, I think that could really do it maybe not so much on the rock formats, but even Hot AC or on CHR.

Much as I'd love to see "Feed The Machine" released I think it's abit to heavy to be released as a single.

Wonder if this album can exceed expectations like their last album, and debut with like 50k+?
