ATREYU!!!!!

wassup everyone. incase u didnt know, Atreyu, on of the best metal bands ever fucking created, is coming on October 23 to this sweet club. wanted to see who else was goin
on of the best metal bands ever fucking created,
ummmm…nope.
first of all, atreyu is not fucking metal. if you want a real metal band, listen to dragonforce or darkest hour.

atreyu is one of the shittiest bands i've ever heard - get some new taste in music, dude.
Someone who listens to Darkest hour telling someone else to get new taste in music.

No that's funny!

Well based on these examples of metal I won't even go into what I would suggest you listen to.

All I know is that somewhere Bruce Dickinson is cringing when he hears these bands mentioned as "metal".
Isn't Dragonforce a cartoon with an associated line of action figures?

I never thought I'd get a rock lyric tattoo but, Atreyu had a good one.

Most people who dislike Atreyu have listened to very little of their stuff. Try "Creature" or "Corsetting (probably their best one)" They can come off as a little emo-y but overall they rock. The best? Maybe not but I'll bet they put on a good show. Will be there.
atreyu is an overhyped, overmarketed band aimed at high schoolers who are too ignorant and/or can't handle real metal, so they are told that bands like atreyu are metal and therefore, are good.

completely untrue.

try the tony danza tapdancing extravaganza for some real rock.
right. thanks for the tip
Until this thread I'd never even heard of Atreyu or any of these other bands.

Glad we got some real hardcore experts here to steer me away from the pussy poseur shit.
Here I was thinking Atreyu was an outfielder for the Yankees.

Nope, he's a character in The Neverending Story I think.
Naming a band after a character in a children's movie from the 80's: A sure sign your band sucks.

I was unfortunate enough to walk past their set at Warped Tour last year in Va Beach and at Nissan. I wanted to stab my ears with Q-tips during their Bon Jovi cover "You Give Love a Bad Name."

I really don't see how they're considered a "metal" band…The only metal band that I saw at Warped Tour was Opiate for the Masses. Now THAT is a metal band!

deceased = best metal band in america. atreyu is emo masquerading as metal. BIG difference.

I think Every Time I die will steal the show.

I've lost almost all interest in Atreyu after their last 2 albums. I loved Suicide notes, but did not enjoy the last 2 at all
a womb miscarrying has more musical talent than atreyu

Deceased! Played a few basement shows with them, oh, about 20 years ago! Can't believe they're still around. Glad they've done well in their scene.

I used to hang with Leslie (is he still their bass player?) He replaced the original bass player after he got run down on the side of the road in that terrible accident.
