Becoming the Bull

About Becoming the Bull

Becoming the Bull is the 4th track and first single on Atreyu's 4th album Lead Sails Paper Anchor. It is their second highest-charted single to date on Modern Rock Format (#5 on the Mainstream Rock Chart and #11 on the Modern Rock Chart), surpassing Ex's and Oh's. Additionally, the song was featured in the EA Sports American football video game Madden NFL 08, where it was incorrectly listed as being called "Becoming". The song has been released by Atreyu in a computer game where players have 20 sound clips and must put them in order in the fastest time. Atreyu made the game a contest where the contestant with the fastest time by August 6, 2007, would win a signed guitar, a phone call from the band, a copy of the CD before it was in stores, and a free membership to Atreyu's exclusive fan club. The top 10 runners-up were given a copy of the CD before it was in stores, and a free membership to Atreyu's exclusive fan club. Atreyu has since made the single available on their MySpace page. The band shot the video with acclaimed director Kevin Kerslake. more »

Come on

?Grab the bull by the horns?
The old adage goes
Nobody tells you where to go from there
[Incomprehensible] in you
Decisions have to be made
The best half is the hardest earned

Back and forth, the struggle consumes us all
Trying to keep a level head
In the most unsettling of times
Today, I'll become the bull
(Become the bull)

There is so much to stake
I stumble, I lose my place
Crowded in while surrounded by sin
Destiny takes its hold
Fight it or let it go
But I choose how the day will end

Back and forth, the struggle consumes us all
Trying to keep a level head
In the most unsettling of times
Today, I'll become the bull
(Become the bull)
Today, I'll become the bull

This small heart can get lonely
I lose myself inside myself
No one can touch you when you're outside staring in
Remove myself from this rat race

Back and forth, the struggle consumes us all
Trying to keep a level head
In the most unsettling of times
Today, I'll become the bull
(Become the bull)

Today, I'll become the bull
Today, I'll become the bull
Today, I'll become the bull
Today, I'll become the bull

Atreyu

Atreyu is an American metalcore band from Orange County, California, formed in 1998. The band consists of vocalist/lyricist Alex Varkatzas, guitarists Dan Jacobs and Travis Miguel, bassist Marc McKnight and drummer/vocalist Brandon Saller. Originally named Retribution, they changed their name to "Atreyu" (after the character of the same name from the fantasy book/movie The Neverending Story), when they found out that another band from Hemet, California had already been using Retribution. They have released five studio albums: Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses, The Curse, A Death-Grip on Yesterday, Lead Sails Paper Anchor, and Congregation of the Damned. more »
