No adds date yet, but 6 stations have added since Tuesday, and it has gained 41 spins in that time. Reminds me of how the last Seether hit started.

Yes, this is a hot Faith No More remake.

I doubt this becomes an official single since Atreyu is supposed to be finishing up their new album right now, so more likely than not a real new single will be on the way.

Haha.
This isn't as good as the original...but It's alright.

I can either see this doing well or failing miserably. I guess time will tell.

I think I started this topic a year ago. But now I can't find it.

I doubt this song lives up to its name-sake, but we'll see I guess.

At least Seether had "Breakdown" already in the top 10 when they went ahead with "Careless Whisper", which is a song that they did a halfway decent job of making their own. This one is barely even different from the Faith No More version. Good as a hidden track; bad as a release. It'd make no sense at all to push this song.

Wow, this is interesting. Wicked Atreyu verses while channeling FNM on the chorus. Good effort, but there's not enough here to make me want to listen to this version over FNM.

If anything this will be an unofficial release that radio just plays because it can. I doubt very much Atreyu had any intention of releasing this and they were just having some fun with a song that they most likely like. Hidden tracks are generally used for the band to just throw some extra out there. Now it will get ripped for being too much like FNM. I actually LIKE that its musically the same and just basically has screamo verses. Epic is a top 10-20 song of the 90's for me, I'm not going to be pissed that a band pays homage with a cover. I'd be surprised if this actually hits any top 50 chart.

They actually put out a tour-diary style video for "Blow" on the internet a few weeks ago. Kinda like they did with "Doomsday" at the end of '07 between "Becoming the Bull" and "Falling Down."

Come to think of it, I never saw any videos from this album. I guess Epic wouldn't earn one either.

^Both "Becoming the Bull" and "Falling Down" had videos. The latter of which received plays in the twilight days of TRL.

I believe you. Now if Epic can get one, that would be fine.

I was not placing odds, just noting it would be fine to get one for this song. If I were Atreyu I'd be focusing on new stuff also instead of a hair metal remake.
