I'll elaborate.
On Suicide Notes And Butterfly Kisses Atreyu boasted some very original sounRAB. They corabined metal and hardcore in a very dark way that hadn't been done before well. I liked it. 7 of the 10 tracks. 1,2,3,5,8,9,10. Thes rest we're so so.
The Curse has one redeemable song. The Crimson. The rest is the exact same thing. And live he is no where as deep. Which is a shame cause his voice sounded really cool....
