"American Psycho" was the song Canadian band Treble Charger led with in July 2000, the opening single from Wide Awake Bored, their fourth album. Greig Nori wrote it, and it hits with the tight, hooky punch of a band that knew exactly what rock radio wanted that summer.
It climbed to 4 on Canada's rock chart, drew a Juno nomination for Best Single in 2001, and is often counted as the band's signature song. It has kept rolling long after the fact: by 2026 it had passed 10 million plays on Spotify.
