It's no biggy. A little pulse bonding session never hurt anybody. I think it's kinda nice to be able to view the posters on here somewhat as people and not entirely as screennames with opinions about music. It leads to better discussions ultimately, and more respectful ones at that. *Hands over award for best post of the week* Aw shucks. *blushes* I was in motivational speaker mode or something, haha.

People really need to stop with this Breaking Benjamin/Three Days Grace competition.
They are both solid bands with their fair share of good songs each. Who cares who is doing better as long as they both do well.

Haha ;). English is my only language man. A little bit of portuguese, but nothing major. Tudo bem? I think it's almost time for a Pop/CHR single. I'm hoping for "Lost In You". And while, I still dislike "The Good Life", I changed my mind. I kinda would like to see it go #1 on both formats (unlikely to happen on Alternative, of course). I mean, I love this band and it would be nice to see them get one more song with such fate.

They'll have plenty more #1s at active. I'd rather have a song that deserves it get to #1, but then again, there aren't many other songs bulleted in the top 10 that I'd root for over this. I like "Your Decision" a lot, but it's already been at #1 for awhile. While I don't LOVE "Letter From A Thief", I do like it, and it'd be nice for Chevelle to have a #1 song for the first time since "Vitamin R".

Oh, believe me I know. I'm just talking about songs I'd want to go to #1. Godsmack isn't in that conversation. But you're right, and the most likely scenario is that Godsmack dethrones Alice In Chains. Then it'll be a question of how well "Between The Lines" is received at rock radio. But my guess is that either Three Days Grace or STP will have the next #1 when Godsmack is willing to move aside.

I keep hearing this song more and more, which doesn't help the fact that's its godawful.

Can they re-release One-X as a 2nd disc to Life Starts Now? There's at least 2 more good singles on One-X left (Time of Dying) (Over and Over) (and arguably Let It Die and It's All Over as well) than there are on Life Starts Now.

True. I think "World So Cold" could become a hit though.

re-releasing an album as the 2nd disc to another album is humanly impossible

I was kidding, but the point stands. There's more good unreleased material left on One-X than this disc. And that's sad.

I find nothing wrong with LSN. What's right with it? It's a perfectly blah follow-up to One-X which was one of the best modern rock albums of the past decade.

Definitely not as good as One-X, but it was still a good record.

I like LSN, but no 3DG album is better than One-X

I can't see any Three Days Grace album ever surpassing the quality of ''One-X''.

One-X was so much more full of hits and it only got, what, 3.5 singles?

I agree One-X was much better than this album. It's not even that these songs are terrible or anything, it's just that ultimately most of the songs are pretty unmemorable and I like 3DG so I've given this album ample opportunity. So far, nothing has clicked for more than a few spins besides "Lost In You". Even tracks that others seem to like, ie) World So Cold, burned out after only a few listens.
