A War You Cannot Win
A War You Cannot Win is the sixth studio album by the American heavy metal band All That Remains. The album was released on November 6, 2012, through Razor & Tie.
The album has some tracks which have a melodic metalcore sound and some with a standard metal sound which have only singing.
Album sold over 25,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 13 on The Billboard 200 chart. As of February 2015, the album has sold 123,000 copies in the United States.
The album was produced by Killswitch Engage guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz, who has produced albums for the band in the past.
The writing phase began soon after their 18-month tour in support of their prior album For We Are Many. The group noted that songwriting matured over time; the process wasn’t overly complicated or formulaic with them basically writing the first batch of songs (10-12) they felt good about and used those. Labonte stated in an interview with Blabbermouth.net "We really busted our asses and tried to do some new stuff.”
The first song to be released from the album was "Down Through the Ages". The song was first posted to Labonte's YouTube channel on August 13, 2012. "Stand Up" was released as the next single on August 27 it became one of the band most successful radio hits and reached number one on the Mainstream Rock chart. On October 26, "You Can't Fill My Shadow" was announced as the album's third single.
But the fifth and last single, "What If I Was Nothing", was the greatest hit of the album and of their whole discography. It is a power ballad which has already reached 97 million views in YouTube. In this song Philip Labonte sings about some of his former problems with his wife. it peaked at number two on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and at number 3 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.
Drummer Jason Costa stated about the album: "This is a very guitar, very melody-oriented album. It wasn't very rhythm-based at all. I would just say it's metal; it's a metal album. We've got some heavy songs on there, some heavy, groovy songs on there. We've got some fast, heavy songs on there, we've got some more radio-friendly, melodic songs on there. It's typical ALL THAT REMAINS, really, but we've definitely stepped up the musicianship there and the writing." The vocals are a balance between clean and harsh.
