Phil….or whoever is responsible for this ‘radio version’ of this song…you’ve disappointed me.

Its like when KSE edited My Curse to be radio friendly…its ass, it sucks, its stupid. Jesus, I’m with Mr. Fair on this one.

Dude, two weeks was SPECIFICALLY written to be a radio-smash. Notice the lack of all screams in any form, when in the past, every ATR song has had a pleasant mix of vocal styles?

You can’t say that ATR wasn’t planning this sell-out after their GH2 success, I mean, they’ve even admitted to doing this, they just forgot to give it the nomenclature of “selling out.”

I fucking HATE radio edits! I understand censoring the cursing, sure, but why do they have to fuck with vocals? I especially hate it when they condense songs into a neat, radio friendly time frame!

Man I’m inclined to side with Brian here, if only because the meathead singer from Five Finger Douche Punch was the one that ratted him out.

Totally agree with what Metal Injection said, though. Pure stupidity from all parties for letting the thing play out online like that.

Shadows fall and All that remains are playing a show together in Kansas City on the 14. Should be a nice time for them two. Complete bull shit that Shadows Fall play before ATR.

i thought they were an ok band, saw em live and they blew it, and phil sounds like shit. it also didn’t help that gojira wiped the floor with every other band that night, much less almost any band i’ve seen since, and i’m not even a big fan of them, they were just that fucking tight.

You’ve never heard of ATR?? Really? Also, it’s hard to discuss things “face to face” when your in different parts of the country on tour.

This is the way I have learned to look at things like this: Having a hot gf is like having an awesome motorcycle. A lot of people are going to look at it and some are going to try to ride it. It’s something you have to get used to when you have a cute girlfriend.

A Twitter fight? How high school emo girl of them. At least The Acacia Strain and Emmure singers took swings at each other, though the Emmure singer tried to use brass knuckles like a coward.

ATR sucks now…they’re good musicians (phil sucks) but this radio friendly crap is lame

I have no problem with music they already made in it’s original form becoming popular and released as a single and to radio (like “two weeks”, regardless of your opinion on the song), but taking a song and changing it to become more radio friendly than it already is – quite the sell out move. I thought Slipknot was bad with removing the intro growl/scream in “Psychosocial” for the video, or the “terry date mix” of Wait and bleed which didn’t have as much screaming on the verses

Shadows Fall new album > ATR’s new one. I still think the 2 are one of the best metalcore bands out there.

LOL. ATR got excited because Six was almost all clean, and it did so well with GH2 and what not. Watch, their next album will be totally mainstream rock and not even the slightest bit metal.

I had so much respect for this band, then I heard them butcher a nevermore song. Then I heard two weeks. Then I found out Phil LaBonte is a hardcore right-wing media-snorting douchebag. I suppose that last bit would explain why he’s so ready to become mainstream.

Seriously, to change up a song (one that was already garbage mind you) and remove whatever was left of the energy in an ATR song, just so it’ll make radio play is fucking retarded. Another disappointing move from a band I used to really enjoy. Oh yeah… and Killswitch Engage did this same thing with My Curse from their previous album, fuck that’s annoying.

I thought this was really stupid, the girl was probably equally into Brian considering he’s not a meathead ego man like Phil. I’ve met Phil a couple times and excluding the first time, he was a complete jerk. I thought it was pathetic when they performed songs that had high notes, and he just growled over it. Anyways when it comes down to it, Shadows Fall kills ATR
