Good! It's really good! :) 3DG didn't disappoint me.
It's one of their worst singles to date, though. I'd only put "Riot" behind this. Imo, 3DG singles are also the band's best songs, so I still like "Break" a lot.
Singles ranking:
1. Animal I Have Become A+ 2. I Hate Everything About You A+ 3. Never Too Late A+ 4. Just Like You A 5. Pain A 6. Home A- 7. Break B+ 8. Riot B

Pain A6. Home A-7. Break B+8. Riot BBang on. Although, I would possibly give "Pain" an A+. "Break" is actually their weakest lead single imo. Still like it. Should be a substantial hit on rock. #1 on both formats potientially.

Over and Over is my favorite song out of all of theirs though. So bummed that was never a single.

^That's how I feel about "Let It Die".
"Over And Over" is also one of my favorite.

Well, releasing "Riot" was a silly decision. They could of gone five deep if they had been more shrewd. "Over and Over", "Let It Die", "Time of Dying" & "Get Out Alive" all would of been better choices.

1. Riot - A+ 2. Home - A 3. Never Too Late - A 4. I Hate Everything About You - A- 5. Pain - B+ 6. Animal I Have Become - B+ 7. Just Like You - B 8. Break - B-
I guess I'm different than most. I think Animal I Have Become was the song that really got me into them, but after a while I grew really really sick of it and it just lost it's appeal.
I've always been a Riot fan xD
Though for some reason I always thought Gone Forever was a single. It was one of the few when I first got the album that I already recognized. I would put that right below Home.

^That's how I feel about "Let It Die". "Over And Over" is also one of my favorite. Agreed on both counts. "Let It Die" is my favourite track from them and I also really love "Over and Over." In terms of singles, I'd rank them as such: 1. I Hate Everything About You A+ 2. Never Too Late A+ 3. Home A+ 4. Just Like You A 5. Pain A 6. Break A- 7. Animal I Have Become A- 8. Wake Up B+ 9. Riot B But I enjoy them all.

So has anyone else pre-ordered this CD? I was supposed to get a free download of "Break" today and never got it. Just wanted to check and see if anyone had any luck.

I really enjoy Animal I Have Become and did like Never Too Late for awhile but have recently gotten kinda sick of it. The rest of their singles I like pretty much the same. I'm not sure where to put Break but it may end up between AIHB and NTL.

1 listen didn't do anything for me. I know that'll shock most of you.

It starts off really good, but the chrous is very boring. Might be a grower though.

This fits nicely in the middle of their catalog. It's actually a little better than I had anticipated. I need to do the ranker to break the streak of six straight posters who have rated at least one song of theirs an A+:
1. Home: B+ (I almost bumped this up to an A-, but I honestly had to look up the song online to even remember how it went.) 2. Just Like You: B+ 3. Animal I Have Become: B+ 4. Never Too Late: B 5. Break: B 6. Pain: C+ 7. (I Hate) Everything About You: C+ 8. Riot: C
I don't remember "Wake Up".

Maybe it's just that I was expecting more or something, but it seems a little generic. Isn't that like saying Britney Spears's new songs seems a little poppy. Three Days Grace is always generic. The question is whether the song has enough other qualities that make it likable.

The question is whether the song has enough other qualities that make it likable. Brittany Spears is awful and I hate pop. I realize this. I'm just stating that upon first listen, it didn't really stand out to me I like it a bit more now however having listened to it over a dozen times.

I didn't mind it at first, but now the chorus just sounds awful to me. Not to mention the "Vampire" line. The first thing I noticed when I listened to it, was the first two lines of the chorus being the exact same except for the words "everybody" and "everything." For some reason I didn't notice the rhyming of "Place is" with "Places." I guess it's just a peeve of mine when a band rhymes a word with essentially a homophone, if not the same word.

Come on, Homer! Pretend this is baseball and hit us a homer! [ Homer gets a strike; they cheer] Homer: By the way, guys: rhyming "Homer" with "homer"? [ kisses fingers]

Thats great. Looks like having their single debut 3 weeks before the album wasn't such a bad idea.
