The new Evanescence is another example, albeit with a much smaller back-catalogue; but Amy Lee is basically doing their new stuff on her own from what I've heard. Evanescence is a little different because, yes, there's hardly any catalog yet, but also they really just seemed to be Amy and Ben on the first record, so when Ben left, it hardly mattered, especially once I learned he was the one keeping them tethered to the strict pop song structures on the first record and not the other way around. That said, I easily prefer Fallen over The Open Door.

Hole's new album will be out that day, wonder how much competition that'll be. Drowning Pool's self-titled album comes out the same day as well

Yeah but Drowning Pool is not going to come close to competing for the number 1 spot.

Maybe with the success of "Feel Like I Do" it can hit the Top 10?

And I don't think DP has a very good shot at the top 10, but I guess you never know. Considering where their 3 albums peaked, my guess is their newest album will debut around #20.

No. I'm saying that "Two Weeks" has potientially opened the door for 'Metalcore' bands to hit the top 10. "Feel Like I Do" & "Your Betrayal" are completely different songs. So, I don't see how it's success is relevant.

Ah I presumed we were talking about the Active Rock chart here, but ok yeah top 10 for Drowning Pool's album seems unlikely, even with the success of ''Feel Like I Do''.

Haha yeah. Drowning Pool isn't metalcore anyway.
And Killswitch sorta opened the door for metalcore top 10s with their cover of "Holy Diver". If their latest album wasn't so damn mediocre, they would have opened the door for themselves.

It would appear that the label should've used some of the money spent on the "Starting Over" video on promoting the song and the album instead. It's a shame that my Alt station only played it, like, once, when they still bust out "The End of Heartache," "My Curse," and "Holy Diver" from time to time. Even "My Last Serenade" once in a blue moon.

I'm guessing a #3 or #4 debut. It's still their highest first week prediction yet. :)
