Atreyu Merchandise is down right scary but the 
Metalcoremetalcore band was named after film hero who screams out in agony.
(Read Atreyu - Part One) Like many songs on The Curse, the cut vividly describes a painful relationship that was anything but monogamous: "Another masquerade in false circumstance/ ... I just wish that I could replace/ All the memories of what makes my blood run cold."
"I was with this girl, and we just started to abuse each other because we couldn't let go," Varkatzas recalled. "You don't realize you're not in love anymore, because love isn't supposed to hurt that bad. So you just have your heart ripped out, and the person who did it doesn't even know what she did was wrong. I just can't understand infidelity. I've never ever cheated on anyone, and I can't understand why anyone would want to be like that with me."
Varkatzas, Saller and Jacobs met in junior high in Orange County, California, and after bonding over a love for Snapcase, Black Flag and Minor Threat, they decided to form their own hardcore band. The group lasted a couple of years, then in high school the guys decided to rethink their direction.
"We wanted to push the boundaries of what a heavy band should be like," Varkatzas said. "A heavy band isn't supposed to have this huge singing part in the middle of the song like we do, but we don't care. And Brandon is such a great singer that it works out great. He's the real talent in the group. I just scream. It's amongst my other numerous task jobs. A little cooking here, a little cleaning there. And I scream."
Varkatzas sometimes screams for vengeance and sometimes out of self-pity, but he doesn't shout blindly. Whether relaying feelings of going insane on "My Sanity on the Funeral Pyre" or being on the verge of suicide in "Five Vicodin Chased With a Shot of Clarity," Varkatzas picks apart his brain to deduce what went wrong, and why and how he can learn from his misery.
"There's a song called 'The Crimson,' and that's about taking a step back and looking at yourself and the decisions you make," he explained. "Sometimes, I've been pretty disappointed about how I've treated people. It makes me disgusted to the point of wanting to make myself better. But where do you begin? Because when you live in sin, it's hard to look at saints. Sometimes you just feel so unworthy you can't change. You just suck. But at least I'm making that effort to recognize the problem, and sometimes that's half the battle."
