atreyu: a death grip on yesterday

synopsis: another favorite of mine the emo/ metal band atreyu is back with thier follow up to 2004's the curse.

review: the metal/ emo duet are back and this time atreyu has added a new bag of tricks as well as stickin to thier old ones. atreyu has thier metal barking frontman singing more in a duet with thier emo singin drummer as well as having thier frontman due emo vocals himself which is very well done. and adds value to the song and makes them more enjoyable. their guitarists have definatly have gotten better and can now play tough parts without problem.

the biggest tracks on this album are shameful, ex's and oh's and thier first slow song the theft which has more emo then metal and is extremely well done and executed perfectly and are great songs to listen to over and over again the rest of the album is stellar except for its mediocore finishing song untilted finale. their bonus cd has a episode of victory tv and a 30 minute studio interview with the band.

overall atreyu's has made some minor changes for the better and have made one hell of an album. and i highly recommend it.
