"Stand Up" is a song by American heavy metal band All That Remains. The song was released as a single from their sixth album, A War You Cannot Win, on August 13, 2012, and a music video was released to YouTube on November 19, 2012. In the U.S., it reached number one on the Mainstream Rock chart.
Background The track marked a notable shift in the band's musical direction towards a more accessible, radio-friendly hard rock sound, relying on clean vocals rather than the growls of their earlier material.
Reception Amy Sciarretto of Loudwire wrote on the song stating "It is a mid-tempo rock song that is anything but vanilla, especially when compared to a lot of sanitized rock on the FM dial. However, diehard headbangers may not like the lack of aggression in the vocals. The band has a catalog full of that style, and ATR are pushing forward and keeping things interesting and evolved."
