Talk:A Death-Grip on Yesterday

Album title format
I redirected the album page to this one for the simple fact that if you look at the album cover you can clearly see a hyphen between the words "death" and "grip" indicating that A Death-Grip on Yesterday is the album's proper and correct title. –Wlmaltby3 09:19, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Deleted useless material
"The CD is a dramatic change of pace from the two previous releases from Atreyu. A Death-Grip on Yesterday features a lot more toned downed songs from their previous albums. The style is more like a Silverstein ish tone combined with the hardcore screaming of Atreyu. To the old Atreyu fans, some may be disappointed, but this album will most likely attract many new fans."

I deleted the above as it really didn't belong here.

I have also deleted the following: "The guitar in the intro to My Fork in the Road (Your Knife in My Back) is out of tune to the other guitar." I have listened to the song and it doesn't appear to be true, and I was unable to find any mention of it anywhere else online. I'm pretty sure the "out of tune" sound is caused by string bends.216.249.145.234 19:28, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Moving away
This album seems to be where Atreyu start to move away from straight out Metalcore (Ex's and Oh's, The Theft, shameful). critics take note of this to -

punknews.org - "At times it’s the older, straight-up metalcore Atreyu you either love or hate. At times it’s the evolved Atreyu, in which the maturation has lead to catchy and chaotic rock songs with melody, strong hooks, and loads of melodic and technical solos."

HardcoreSounds - "The band has much more clean vocals in their songs which ain´t a bad thing at all because Alex Varkatzas is a good vocalist and can sing clean parts well but why on earth to give up from the fury that gained a "gold" record title to the band?."

Rockbeast - "Explaining that this is the sound that the band wanted to do from the very beginning Atreyu pump out more melodies and singing rather than the mighty screams of Alex Varkatzas."

While I'm not sure if there is a clear enough genre other than Metalcore to be added to the info box I belive the shift in style should be noted on the article. Any thoughts?? Duck610 (talk) 00:57, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
