Overview

On July 21, 2008, two tracks from the new album - "Before the Damned" and "Relinquish" - made their first appearance on the band's MySpace profile. Commenting on the tracks, vocalist Philip Labonte stated, "This represents the heavier side of ATR. Last time we did this we put up 'The Weak Willed' and we feel like it's a bit of a tradition to really kick you in the nuts when we first show off new stuff! So here is the heaviest stuff we came up with for 'Overcome.'"[12] "Chiron" made its first appearance on August 11, 2008, on the band's MySpace profile. The song was the first single from the album, with a behind-the-scenes shoot up and the official music video submitted to YouTube.[13][14]

Two of the album's tracks, "Two Weeks" and "Chiron", were made available as downloadable content for Rock Band on September 9, 2008. The tracks were exclusive to Rock Band for one week before the album was released.[15]

"Two Weeks" was added to the band's MySpace page on September 8, 2008, to help promote the release of the song pack on Rock Band. It is the album's second single and a music video has been released for it.[16] The song has since become their biggest hit to date, entering the top ten on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks.[17]

The album entered the Billboard 200 at #16, and has sold over 200,000 copies.

The band released their third single from the album, "Forever in Your Hands", to radio on June 15, 2009. This also featured an acoustic version of the song, the first time the band had released an acoustic song.[18]

On October 7, 2009, the band released the bonus track "Frozen", previously available in Japan only, as a free download from their website. On the same day, a music video for "Forever in Your Hands" was released.[19]

On March 17, 2010, "Days Without" was released on the Rock Band Network as a downloadable song. On April 8, 2010, "Forever in Your Hands" followed. Finally, "Undone" was released on April 27, 2010
