From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Can't Happen Here" is the eighth track off of hard rock band Atreyu's fourth full length album, Lead Sails Paper Anchor. It is somewhat different lyrically for Atreyu, as they take a step into political territory criticizing the War In Iraq. In an interview with Revolver, lead singer Alex Varkatzas claims that he is supporting the troops, but definitely not supporting the President. The song begins with military-style drumming along with machine guns and children crying in the background, giving a very war like feel to the song. It is also a heavier, more metal sound, a sound some feared was lost in the album, though it still has a very new, fresh feel as with the whole of Lead Sails Paper Anchor.
