Thought they disbanded a while ago tbh.

like a fart in the wind

I could've sworn i've seen this article before

Craig has yet to do anything noteworthy outside of Chiodos despite his bazillion side projects and bands. D.R.U.G.S. was terrible.

yah this is old news

had a feeling today would be a good day

oooooooooooold news

It is pretty old. I don't remember seeing it on here so I thought I might as well post it.

if it hasn't previously been posted here, don't bitch about it being old news. i for one am happier for having read it.

Cheetos? Who are these guys!

I had happily forgotten this band ever existed. Now I was reminded and I'm unhappier for having read it.

^ touché

also if you dropped the 91 you'd have one rad username

RIP

middle school mems of this shit band forever tho

Should have brought D.R.U.G.S. back to life

badXmusic

first two albums are classics

Bring back Brandon Bolmer + Prigden & Erak and you have yourself a band

JTW, Lover, the Lord Has left Us from Sound of Animals Fighting was dope, though I didn't think his participation was particularly great.

Bring back Brandon Bolmer + Prigden & Erak and you have yourself a band

They should have kept Brandon w.e his name was, the singer before. THey'd probably still be going and far better than anything the band did with Owens.

Disappointing.

Illuminaudio is best Chiodos

also that song was absurdly bad, holy shit.

Craig Owens shouldn't be making music. Bring back the guy from Illuminaudio.

I discovered the band with Illuminaudio, found the album great and then learnt that the singer on it didn't sing on any other album and then... then... (cries) I listened to... and... (more cries)

actually illuminaudio was really fucking bad

How dare you swear !?!

Illuminaudio blows the rest of their discog out of the water

Bring back Brandon Bolmer + Prigden & Erak and you have yourself a band

[3]

Holy fuck would that be something to behold

I'd be satisfied if it was even just the Illuminaudio lineup but doing that style with Prigden and Erak being themselves would be a real treat

They would never do Illuminaudio again. They almost broke up after that album. Craig was pretty much keeping this band on life support after the others kind of gave up.

Sound of Animals Fighting is the best thing Craig's done tbh

Should have kept Brandon.

Illuminaudio is fucking trash and way worse than the album with all nereids beware whatever the fuck it's called that album is the only thing close to decent this band every made

Should've kicked out Owens and build upon Illuminaudio.

oh my god seriously y'all need your heads examined Illuminaudio is straight trash

First 3 albums were great, Devil sucked, good riddance

Illuminaudio was alright at least.

band sucked

trebor delivering truth itt

Was better than any of their other albums.

what else is new

Somewhat sad about this honestly. Have some nostalgia for the older music in my teens, the new album was disappointing but there were still some tracks over the last few years that will have me missing them.

calling illuminaudio chiodos' best is like calling tim couch the most successful qb in cleveland browns history. it might be technically true, but that doesn't make it much of an accomplishment.

The '05 album is their only album I ever spin ye

I think his vocal style could really thrive in a lot of softer music but wow the video and track are not good

great news

lol this new stuff is shit too

badXchannels

Finally

Craig Owens is the worst

Illuminaudio is their only decent album gtfo. I have my bachelor's in crappy metalcore

Alls Well That Ends Well is a very solid album

badXchannels

chodes

Alls well sucks.

Illuminaudio is good, everything else is shit.

Speaking of shit, this song Craig did is one of the worst things I have ever heard.

I could've sworn i've seen this article before [2]

Illuminaudio was decent but otherwise this band never really put out anything good

But Satellite, least you forget Bernie Kozar?

but Choidos were never good yeah [xifinity]

@Pencil See, that's not the same franchise, no matter what they claim. That team moved to Baltimore and won 2 Super Bowls.

Well...they had one good album at least

I hope Craig Owens isn't reading this thread.

I hope he is

Ex-Vocalist of decent band goes on to make trash solo music. Wow!

Edit: Illuminaudio was their best album for sure

Craig Owens left, the band made their best album by far, and then he came back and immediately ran it back into the ground.

"See, that's not the same franchise, no matter what they claim. That team moved to Baltimore and won 2 Super Bowls."

Hey man, if we are going to get technical here, Cleveland took Art to court and won. Also, Derek Anderson was the best QB that the browns had, but they completely fucked that up when they decided to develop Brady Quinn instead of him.

The rest of Chiodos should just bring back all the people that were responsible for Illumiaudio, rename the band, and start over. Craig Owens must be just awful to deal with.

anyone know if Brandon Bolmer is making new music?

Saw these guys once for like $7 during the Illuminaudio days, that album was pretty good honestly

^it's their best album. The instrumental side of the band actually got to shine and Brandon sounded great. Devil should have been way better with Erak.

Brandon Bolmer makes electronic music under the name Maskarade

Adios chiodos. Who are youse? Christnos.

zak, I bet you'd love Chiodos. Maybe start with Baby, You Wouldn't Last A Minute On the Creek.

On it.

lol

Fucking awful. Thank fuck they've packed it in. I'd have shot 'em if they carried on with this carry on.

badxchannels or whatever it's called is way worse than this

On it.

zak, you're fearless.

This is like finding out an extended relative who had been struggling with dementia for years finally passed. They're no longer in pain. It's over.

did craig owens have a grindcore band or am i imagining things

yea he did^

Casting....

https://cheerupkid.bandcamp.com/album/empathy-is-a-gift-ep

It was because they all got tired of each other after illuminaudio. Some wanted to go back to school, others wanted to raise a family and the band did not have as much chemistry with Brandon or Tanner.

I thought they broke up in 2014???

Merry Christmas to me.

fuck. this really sucks
