 There is no error of any kind? What I listened to is indeed Atreyu?

 Atreyu has changed perhaps without respecting that musical base that was their identity, their distinctive trademark.

This review of Atreyu's album Lead Sails Paper Anchor discusses the band's departure from their metalcore roots towards a more mainstream and melodic sound. The vocal style has shifted from screamed to melodic singing, leading to mixed feelings. The production by John Feldmann and the switch to Roadrunner Records mark a clear step toward commercial appeal. Some songs recall their earlier style, but overall the album is viewed as a forced attempt at musical eclecticism. Newcomers may find it interesting, while longtime fans might find it unrecognizable. Discover the transformation of Atreyu in Lead Sails Paper Anchor—listen now and decide if the mainstream path suits them!

The band's blend of melodic female vocals and aggressive metal elements creates a compelling listening experience.

Fans of gothic and melodic metal will find much to appreciate here. Listen to Ueickap's Stereotyped now and experience the vibrant Italian gothic-metal scene!

 "All the Same" is a true power song perfect as the soundtrack of a tear-jerking romantic movie.
