It reached #21 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, surpassing the band's last breakthrough single The End of Heartache, which topped #31, and has been nominated for a Grammy.
The music video was directed by Lex Halaby, who has also directed videos for Hoobastank and Mudvayne. My Curse, along with the rest of the album, has been generally praised by critics but has received substantial criticism for breaking away from the style established in preceding albums, toning down their previously "harder" sound. As said above, My Curse 's style is a mix of the raw metalcore sound of Killswitch Engage and melancholic intersections/lyrics.
The song is featured in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. The song is also featured as downloadable content for Rock Band as part of the "Roadrunner 6 Pack". The song also featured in Burnout Dominator and in Burnout Paradise.
