i heard dying in your arms on the german radio after school

and i saw a couple of months ago "Pull Harder On The Strings Of Your Martyr" on tv here in germany. but it was late in the night

QUOTE(dmsdj5)American radio in general just sucks......

shit dude omg. its always the god damn same song in each radio station (the song suck by the way) i remember listening to one song and then chaing to another radio stationg hearing it again, and doing this one more time.

to push singles to radio you actually have to pay a whole lot of money. you pay for the publicity and promotion. usually small college and local radio can play whatever they want, but national radio stations you usually have to buy your way on. shitloads of bands every week pay and pray to get their song on the radio and very few make it. it's more complicated of a process than it seems. that's why labels have to make such big choices about pushing bands to radio or not

a radio station around here is all requests. it's nice.

Im sure trivium were on radio one once.
but they said never again, fascists.
And they are kerrang sometimes, but really, who listens to that.

Dying In Your Arms was all over daytime Radio 1 in the UK...for a week, then it dissappeared. :x
In the evenings though on Radio 1 Zane Lowe always plays whatever Trivium or BFMV, A7X, KoRn, or Slipknot have out, so radio in the UK can be quite good... if you can sit through the dissappointment of hearing metal on the radio and then realising its KoRn or BFMV..
Anyway, I was wondering - with Detonation being kind of released soon, will radio stations be able to play it?

I remember listinin to radio 1 and DIYA came on in school.I also remember hearing DIYA on zane lowe,and there's been a load of trivium songs on kerrang radio

Here in a small town of Ohio with almost no metal at all on the radio pop-culture thrives. But Metal has been growing..among the ranks of friends and crap with is all basicly my doing. If I never told my friend about Trivium they would think rap is cool and its not.
I've tried many times to get metal on the "harder" rock stations but they are always saying "Aw man I cant do that" they have to play what the posers and preps think is "cool"

Where I come from, all the mainstream stations do not provide a way one can request a song, you can only call by phone but then again the requester will probably have to pay.
