I've never really been a huge fan of Metallica even in their epic days Next time you visit Orlando, you and me need to have a chat. Sounds like you're gonna straighten him out. ;)

I honestly don't mind the Doug Robb version.

I just listened to both versions back to back for the lulz. And interestingly enough, I like the radio version better because of the way Doug emotes during the chorus. It's not a knock on Brent though. I like that version too for different reasons.

Big shout out to Doug Robb and Hoobastank, who re-enter a chart somewhere in the world, with The Reason at #183 on the Mexican iTunes singles chart presently. Congrats Doug.
This song is underrated.

This is struggling on alternative. I hope it gets at least Top 40 there.

It went very well. We were the band right before them on mainstage, and their fans liked us. In fact their favorite song was probably the 9 minute instrumental that we opened with so maybe that's the type of band that we're meant to be after all.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Well, maybe if you heard said 9-minute instrumental song, you'd change your mind. We don't have it recorded yet, but I think it may very well be our best song. As for the reason I came to this thread in the first place: An underwhelming entrance, but, top 50 on alternative: 53 50 APOCALYPTICA Not Strong Enough f/... 119 121 -2 0.286 I'm surprised at how this single is faring compared to past singles. This song seemed the most primed for radio out of all of them. I guess Doug Robb might as well be a no-name.

I'm sure it's awesome but I prefer music with vocals. Apocalyptica is the exception that proves the rule.
