Woe, Is Me Loses 3

2012-03-07 by jwyles4 | 54 Comments
Michael Bohn (screaming vocals) Cory Ferris (bass) and Ben Ferris (keys/vocals) have all left Woe, Is Me. Altpress.com obtained an exclusive statement from Ben Ferris on the behalf of the departed three, which can be read below:

"It doesn't come with any ease to announce, but the three of us have left Woe, is me.
Our differences were just too vast on so many levels: Musical, personal/moral, and professional/business.

It came to a point where we could either continue on the path they saw fit, or we could create our own path and find happiness in our own ways.

We have nothing but gratitude for all of the fans. Every handshake, high-five, hug, pat on the back, and kind word from you guys and gals means the absolute world to us.

When one door closes, another opens: and we can't wait to see what's on the other side of this new door.

Hope to see you on the road soon.

Much love."

so i was thinking about it today and you can basically take members from woe is me, asking alexandria, blessthefall, we came as romans, attack attack, us, from outside, make me famous, the word alive, of mice and men, and i the breather and switch them up and still have the same band so nobody cares when post hardcore bands like that lose members

Tyler Carter was the only worthwhile member back in the day, now he's making terrible pop music. Care factor is now below zero.

who cares about a screamer, anyone they bring in will sound exactly the same. the keys are bullshit (the only noticeable 'electronic' stuff is done by the drummer). and bass? please. woe is me will continue to sound exactly the same as that last single*

They might as well just go with a new name as a new band, bitches'll never sound the same as they did in Number[s], which frankly I liked (aside from the annoying ass production).

Not a bad band. I just couldn't get past the gay feeling it gave me listening to those clean vocals. They had some good ideas but i do not care for this band.

I actually kind of dug Number[s] but I was honestly surprised to see all of the people complaining about this on Facebook. Then again they were all from San Antonio.

Contrary to the belief of rock and metal fans, having more than 5 members in a band is extremely common and reasonable.

Keyboards are extremely common in rock and metal, and having two singers is a plus in my honest opinion.

^ Who isn't replaceable?

Dammit about Mike leaving. He was sort of the staple for WIM for me since Tyler left. Wonder if Hance will do the harsh vocals or if another member will.

Tyler Carter sucked anyway, he always had that super-homosex feel about his vocals. Bohn was a massive improvement, but this band has still never been that great.

That's alright, keyboard players are replaceable. All they have to do is go downtown to the next Pride Parade and find a replacement.

Hopefully they cut keys out. Who cares about a bassist in bands like these? Rumor might be that they want one of the
volumes vocalists.

Yeah no need for 2 screamers, ie; Volumes, Vildhjarta, Arusha Accord(at least the both sing as well in AA) But idk, Volumes vocalists wouldn't fit in WiM

I saw and met this band on their first UK tour and they were great guys but played a pretty mediocre show. Hopefully they'll break it off while they can and go on to better things.
