Faktion - Letting You Go

[pen]

July 3rd is the add date for the second single. It does not surprise me that they chose this, as this is the "heartfelt ballad" of the album, and you know how they do, they being those major labels. I don't think it will do any better than Take It All Away, which is on the one hand a shame, but not incredibly unexpected. After all, this is a band that is basically using that infernal formula for radio rock handed down through the ages, and there's really only room for so many of them.

Well, this is one of my favorites on the album, but I'm surprised that they didn't just go for broke with Distance...but then, there was the likely probability that it would have killed their rock cred.

I like the EP version of this song much more than the album version.

I, personally, think it sounds a lot better. It's just the way the vocals are done. That's about it.

I liked some of the EP versions compared to the album versions...I actually think the song that suffered the most was Distance, which even so, is likely to become their most successful song (if they release it).

After just listening to this for the first time, I really like it and think its much better than Take It All Away. I didn't know Faktion had this in them to produce such a nice sounding and rocking ballad. It really reminds me a lot of Taproot's "Birthday". I guess I can no longer just think of them as just another nu-metal band.

I never thought of Faktion as a nu-metal band. They're like Seether and TOAD more than anything else.

Theyre much more alternative sounding to be a NuMetal band.
