"Readyfuels" is the first single from alternative rock band Anberlin from their debut album Blueprints for the Black Market. The song is the opening track of the album as well as one of their better known singles. Readyfuels helped to prove that Anberlin can create a catchy riff as well as good lyrics and guitar solos. A demo of the song is featured on the band's Lost Songs album, which was the original recording of the song sent to Tooth and Nail to get signed in. The demo features a longer intro, a couple of slightly different guitar lines, and a difference in singer Stephen Christian's voice.

Video

The music video shows the band performing the track in front of what singer Stephen Christian calls a "90's screensaver". The background features a night sky, fireworks, as well as many other special effects. Christian has gone on to say that the video was "horrible and should never have been aired."

Reception

The song was used in the Nexon version of the video game, Audition. The game closed on April 14, 2009. The song was favored by a lot of players of the game but it is not used in the RedBana version of the game because Nexon couldn't pass the license rights to the song to RedBana.
