Orange County hard rockers Atreyu have been tapped by Linkin Park to headline the Revolution Stage on this year’s Projekt Revolution tour. The tour launches July 16 at the Tweeter Center in Boston.
Atreyu, who are currently co-headlining the Rockstar Taste of Chaos tour with Avenged Sevenfold, has just scored their first Top Ten hit at Alternative radio with new hit single “Falling Down,” which currently takes the No. 4 spot on the chart. The track is the fastest-rising song to hit the top 10 thus far this year. Its companion video is currently in rotation on Fuse. Fans can view the video at YouTube.
Atreyu is gearing up for the April 22 release of
Lead Sails Paper Anchor 2.0 in the CDVU+ format. The CDVU+ replaces the traditional CD booklet/jewel case with eco-friendly packaging (100% recyclable, 35% post-consumer) while offering an unprecedented amount of content, which is accessed through a weblink that’s triggered when fans put the disc in their computers. Atreyu is the first hard rock band to release a disc in the CDVU+ format.
The CDVU+ version of Lead Sails Paper Anchor 2.0 features the full album, including the new hit single “Falling Down,” a new track recorded exclusively for this release titled “The Squeeze,” and blistering covers of Faith No More’s “Epic” and The Descendents’ “Clean Sheets.” Also included are ten exclusive videos (three live performances, five individual band profile pieces and two behind-the-scenes life on the road clips and a guitar lesson from Atreyu six-stringer Dan Jacobs). The CDVU+ version also features a 50 page, fully printable, digital booklet that includes more than 40 exclusive photos, song lyrics and new artwork.
