Yeah dude, musically, "Warrior" is much more similar to "Indestructible" than "Asylum" is to "Indestructible". yeah I see little or no connection between Indestructable and Asylum

David always comes off as an asshole to me. He's probably really hard to work with. The other guys in the band seem cool though.

^I mean it probably isn't the reason, but why is that so impossible. He's kinda like the star of the video I'd imagine and if the director and him didn't see eye to eye about something, that could easily be a reason why the video couldn't be completed.

Other way around sir. I'm saying that I've noticed that he seems like a dick/seems sorta abrasive in some of his interviews and some of the opinions he's voiced. Because of him seeming difficult and the way he worded his twitter post with frustrated undertones, I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if he might be at the center of the video failing to work out. I'm not saying it is likely or claiming to know anything, but I get a vibe from him that he'd be a tough guy to see eye to eye with on creative matters, and he'd get ticked if he didn't get his way.

I've never noticed this of him and am now wondering what interview you've read that came across this way.

Off the top of my head, he came off as kinda an asshole when Disturbed was talking about recording with Johnny K in a video while they were recording Asylum. On Music Choice - Rock, the facts they give about Disturbed are quotes from David Draiman, and one of them is something along the lines, "It just seems wrong making money off other people's misery" on people in healthcare. Granted, he may be referring to insurance companies, but it sounds like he's saying that about doctors too which is pretty misguided. There have been other cases too, but that's what I remember right now. I admit I could be totally wrong, but that's my vibe on him so far.

So you're calling him an asshole because he may or may not trust doctors? Hell, based on all the visits I had to make to various doctors over the course of last year I'm not sure that I trust doctors. Doesn't mean he's an asshole.

That's not saying he distrusts doctors. That's saying that choosing to become a doctor is not a noble profession. And with a doctor for a father who's super dedicated to his work and helping people, I take offense to that. And for someone as educated as he is, to suggest that we shouldn't pay doctors, what does he want..."I think a world in which you just die when you're sick would be better honestly. No Corruption, just death." f**k him.

I don't think David is saying that doctors shouldn't get paid. It's a pretty vague statement, so it's hard to know what's really meant by it. It's also hard to know what personal things David's been through to come to the conclusion that he did. He might have had bad experiences with doctors, because I'm sure not all doctors are like your father. Whatever personal feelings you may have, it's silly to judge someone based off of one statement in an interview that doesn't really go into detail about the reasoning or the intent.

Well as I said, it wasn't just that one thing. And I think it's okay for me to judge him. I still like the band enough, and it's not like I'm going to hurt his feelings. If I were to somehow ever meet him, I'd give him a fair chance to prove me wrong. And while he may have reasons for his opinions, the way he chooses to use his role as a public figure to make controversial comments is enough to make the inference that he has no qualms about being stubborn about an opinion, something that just might make him tough to work with in a creative environment. And my guess it that the other guys in the group have the type of personalities that can handle him. I also remember him making comments about their rise to fame and their current status that just came off as entitled. I'll admit I have limited info, but he just seems like the type. We'll likely never find out whether I'm right about what caused the video shoot to go sour anyway, but if we do, I'm calling David Draiman's ego as being among the faulty parties.

4/5 of the doctors we have in Newfoundland are either from the Middle East or Africa. I don't trust those guys at all, since they aren't even aware of the different illnesses and stuff here. Canada needs more Canadian doctors. Anyways, this is getting way off topic lol.

There might not be a fourth single, but yeah, if they do release another, it should be Asylum.

Suprised this has peaked already though. Weren't you the one who said "Awake And Alive" was done? I don't think it's gonna get much farther, but a -55 bullet with memorial day weekend playlists decreasing this week's totals...I don't think it's fair to say that this song has peaked. "Rope" is falling fast at #4 so I think "Warrior" should at least gain one more spot on the chart before heading back the other way.

^ Agreed. I doubt "Asylum" will ever see a release. If not, I'm ready for a new album.

Yeah, I find it funny that people think certain songs have peaked, because of the negative bullets through the memorial day weekend. ^ Agreed. I doubt "Asylum" will ever see a release. If not, I'm ready for a new album. Really? The current album doesn't feel that old to me, just yet. As for a fourth single, they didn't release one from the last (more successful) era, so I struggle to see why they would do so this time around.

they released a fourth single from The Sickness (The Game) But they released three from "Believe" & "Indestructible." Imo, they really should capitalized on the success of the last album more, before throwing "Asylum" out there. "Deciever" & "The Curse" would have made fine singles. I'm less enthusiastic about what's left on "Asylum."
