Going to all rock formats next week.
I've liked this on early radio listens. A little like Disturbed in many ways, but not bad.

This band is okay, but sounds absolutely nothing like Disturbed. I'm surprised this is going for adds though.

I think that "Good Morning Again" has a good chance of being a crossover hit.
"King Of Spain" & "Story" are good, but i don't think they have a chance on radio.

I don't know anything about the group or other songs, but How Bad surely reminds me of Disturbed in many ways. I almost picked this up at Best Buy last week for $5, if it's the one I'm thinking of that has the XII on the cover. This one has yet to grow on me too much.
EDIT : CORRECTED SPELLING

I don't think you've listened to a lot of Disturbed.

Not hearing the Disturbed similarity at all...
I like this song, and I like GMA, but I think the best chance they had to cross over was with "Slam." I mean, they should've at least tried to send that one to HAC.

The intro sounds like a couple of Disturbed singles I've heard. I don't know anything else by this band, but How Bad gets better each time it comes on.

Which Disturbed songs did you have in mind? Doesn't sound like any that I know.

This band is alright. I thought "Slam" was a decent song, but they don't sound anything like Disturbed. I think they're definitely more Saving Abel or Shinedown with a post-grunge sound than nu-metal like Disturbed.

Yes, I kinda a gree with the Shinedown comparison. But the intro calls back an old Disturbed single. I only have the newest Disturbed CD, so I can't really help with a title. Every time How Bad comes on, I think it's Disturbed until the guy starts singing!
