I really tried..."Underrated" is ok, and I almost gave them credit for that until I heard "Warrior" which is unadulterated garbage.

Legendary Metalcore inventers Atreyu

I actually have a soft spot for Death-Grip on Yesterday. Everything else is horrid.

nah, their first 2 are solid as well

Wow..this is actual trash.

"Legendary Metalcore inventers Atreyu" are you fucking serious?

they did invent the genre I'd rec you to do more proper research

“"Legendary Metalcore inventers Atreyu" are you fucking serious?”

You must’ve missed this from a few years ago

Atreyu was my favorite band when I was in high school. If this is another imagine dragons covers album then I’ll pass.

"Metalcore inventors" lolwhat? I really hope this is a reference to that time they absurdly claimed to have invented a genre that existed for like 10+ years before they were even a band.

Surprised the mods didn't edit the text here lmao.

And yes I was referencing that quote from Alex, I was trying to be funny :c

I was actually pretty impressed by Underrated, Save Us was alright but Warriors is garbage holy shit.

I’m gonna come back to say they totally ripped off that broken sword motif from LOTR. I mean.... you can’t even make a SWORD BREAK look original??

Ah, yes, supreme mxc inventors have graced us with their presence again

4 seconds into Warrior and I'm already pretty sure Imma hate this song

Underrated wasn't too shabby, tho

The first song is probably the best of the 3 songs they've released for this album. Nothing really outstanding or something I'll actively replay when I spin some Atreyu.

That warrior song though... God lord, its so generic that it hurts. Sounds like they're aiming for sporting venue and WWE PPV exposure.

Additionally, lol at the people missing the metalcore inventers meme. Nice touch to the post.

Acad where you at

Time to become the bull, buddy

somedays you just wake up and invent metalcore huh

Atreyu is the band equivalent of the guy in his late 20s you see walking around with a scene cut and ripped skinny jeans.

Like dude, move on.

Featuring a drummer when you already have a drummer is so weird

@Trebor it's more an added percussion part. Think Slipknot

^ That being said.. Atreyu is garbage and Warrior is the lamest song I've ever heard

I try to think of Slipknot as little as possible

I liked the manic energy of Underrated, but was still a bit annoying how it was trying to pander to radio rock lovers. Warrior is pretty bad with the exception of the drumline bit.

You’d think if you were trying to reinvent yourself in 2021 you’d probably not have features from Jacoby Shaddix, Matt Heafy and Travis Barker

Travis Barker will take any gig these days it seems

Sad to see a band that played a big part in forming my early tastes releasing such horrific material. Shit is actually embarrassing, these lyrics, jesus.

SO FUCKIN BLOW THOSE WORDS OUT THE BACK OF YO HEAD, IVE HEARD IT ALL AND IM DONE W THAT SHEEUT

Never remotely understood the appeal of this band, even as a metalcore fan

When a band needs to associate to Travis Barker, you know it is bad sign.

tbqh being whatever the opposite of a metalcore fan is makes this band sound 3x as good

This sounds like Fall out boy-core at it's worst. How the mighty have fallen.

Underrated is kinda fun tbh

"Travis Barker will take any gig these days it seems"

Tattoos are expensive bro

"SO FUCKIN BLOW THOSE WORDS OUT THE BACK OF YO HEAD, IVE HEARD IT ALL AND IM DONE W THAT SHEEUT"
this kind of lyrical theme is precisely why this band is intolerable

also in that interview
“I think our fan base and the people who like our band are like that too. They like music and we play music.”

this door appears to be locked maybe i should try the key

It’s 2021 we should all be ashamed for even commenting here.

“How the mighty have fallen.“

They were mighty in the first place?

Atreyu fucking sucks. I'd rather listen to Asking Alexandria on repeat.

first 3 albums are lightyears ahead of anything Asking Alexandria ever released

Agreed.

I don't trust anybody who doesn't fuck w/ The Curse

Or A Death Grip on Yesterday

“"Legendary Metalcore inventers Atreyu" are you fucking serious?”

Definitely missed this and the joke so apologies.

First line of the article actually got me to lol for real

I’m not even going to try this song or anything they do. Regardless of who is in or not in the band.
