Band should break up now

looks like his plan ended without conclusion

Looks like there is nothing left in this case.

Dude is going down.

Band should break up now

Man, this is like something from a movie.

Also, "looked on with a blank star"
Might want to quickly fix that.

if I were the band I wouldn't break up because of the repulsive actions of this guy

Faux christian.

...

He's going down fo sho.

lol hes so fucked

"THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YA LISTEN TO ALL THAT SATANIC HEAVY ROCK MUSIC." - Tipper Gore.

shit

"Lambesis is accused of approaching members at the gym he attended and asking if any of them knew of someone he could possibly contact to dispose of his wife."

if true, the guy is a retard that deserves whatever he gets

not to mention the cost, you'd think it'd cost a bit more than $1000 to kill someone

This is so weird. I've watched a fair few of his videos on youtube and he seems like such a chill dude. It's looking pretty sketchy atm but I'm curious to hear his defense.

How many years you reckon?

Why?

Lambesis was the founding member and integral part of the band. They should respect that regardless of
his wrongdoings. I imagine the rest of the band also want distance themselves from this event and
start fresh. If the remaining members were to continue with a new vocalist, I think they should at
least change the band name.

The As I Lay Dying brand is a licence to print money though :/

9 years

Christians all over the world are grieving.

The guy gave up Christianity. If anything, Christians would use this as some kind of proof lol.

They'll make up some bullshit no doubt, after all they are Christians.

Roid rage.

Yeah, he pumps the irons all the time.
I wouldn't be surprised if he's full of 'roids.

The grand was just for expenses apparently. They were going to take care of the rest later by the assumption of the prosecution. Charles Ramsey probably saved this lady too. He's a real American hero.

lol this guy is fucked

It was god's plan for to have her killed!

Is he a fucking cheapskate? $1000? Come on dude!

This is the best musical drama since Wrest tattooing his ex-girlfriend

yeah man you gotta at least put in 25k if you want some harvey keitel level shit

as i dropped the soap.

This is so sad.

cool

YOU CALLIN THE WOLF?

Man, Tim is fucked in the head.

They should replace him with someone who can write decent lyrics.

Well. He sounds rather, um... unintelligent.

This is some crazy shit.

hmm... the plot thickens. Looks like he's going down for a fair few

This is the best musical drama since Wrest tattooing his ex-girlfriend [2]
Yeah but it turned out she made that story up. This sounds for real.

What a story this has turned out to be. It's a shame too cause he was actually pretty talented and probably ruined a lot of opportunities for the rest of the band. They should form a new band under a new name without him and continue making music. I wouldn't want to be associated with AILD anynmore if I were them.

Wow....

Really want to hear more about this, that evidence and the circumstances are pretty incriminating but we'll see what Tim has to say about it. I've always thought this lyrics to be pretty inspiring despite any religious affiliation so it would be a bummer if all of this is true. Damn, no criminal record but he jumps to hiring a hitman?

something just seems off about this whole thing

Everything seems off about the whole thing. It's messed.

It would be way more fucked if she was actually killed and the police looked back to find all of this evidence

hope he rots in jail.

I have to say I'm a little sorry to see him get put away. "The Powerless Rise" and "An Ocean Between Us" were some of the
first few albums I added to a growing CD/vinyl collection. And I always though he was a solid dude with principles that you
could respect, if not agree with. I guess not.

RararaIlovejesusrarara

oh no I've spent my life believing in made up shit

*tries to kill wife*

gets anally raped until death

. My Life by Tim Lambesis

Well this is just hilarious then

The whole Jesus element adds a comedic touch to these otherwise more or less serious proceedings.

Incoming Kickstarter to pay for legal fees.

Lol So he was just asking random dudes in the gym if they knew someone that'd kill his wife? wtf you retard

Maybe Tim should have been a little bit suspicious when he was told it only cost ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO KILL SOMEONE.

Lol yeah well I hope the $1000 was just a little up front good faith to the supposed killer and he'd pay him the rest after
he killed her or whatever cause I wouldn't even vehicularly manslaughter you for 1000 bucks

"Incoming Kickstarter to pay for legal fees."

He should have done a Kickstarter to raise money for the assassination.

I doubt the actual price was $1000. That was probably just to cover any expenses and after the deed was done he'd pay in full.

SPEAK ENGLISH OR DIEEEEEEEE

Damn, this guy is a real piece of shit.

no what looks bad is people constantly talking about the band's christianity like it has anything to do with this incident

no what looks bad is people constantly talking about the band's christianity like it has anything to do with this incident [2]

"and had a string of sexual affairs with other women on tour."

Way to go!

keyblade, when he lost jesus he lost his moral compass, of course he wanted to kill his wife! i know if i had jesus i wouldn't be such an egocentric sodomite

Holy shit! Now he will be CONFINED 94 years in jail and SHADOWS will be his only SECURITY.

Damn, he's fucked.

Lol I wish I didn't but I still can't help but feel for the guy. AILD a long with BFMV (Yeah I know, go fuck yourselves) and a few others were the first "heavy" bands I started listening to

They are very small feels

As I lay Dying... In Jail (Deluxe Edition)

Not that him "losing jesus" or whatever was a sign but turning your back on a religion you've so strongly believed in, he's probably been going through some weird shit

You can feel bad about the situation without feeling bad for him.[2]

Side note: I don't know if anyone cares, but his tech-death side project Pyrithion was actually kind of promising. Bummer from a musical standpoint too.

agreed Pyrithion were awesome.

Yea $1,000 seems a little cheap but lots of people are produced daily, so there is no short supply and prices fall when production of any good rises.

Obviously this was just a classic example of the market forces at work.

That really sucks. I mean, I never really listened to the band but you gotta wonder what would drive him to all this. Going from Christian to almost murderer is a pretty big change. Something pretty drastic must've happened.

Leave it to ButcheredChildren to know the economics in murder plots.

"Tim Lambesis, pleaded not guilty today"

"He was then specifically asked during an audio recording if he wanted his wife dead, to whom he stated without hesitation, “yes, that’s exactly what I want.”"

lol what a fucking retard, the guy's done lock him up

Oh wow, he's really screwed.

Band should break up now


Why? [2]

Because this case is basically over. And I will support the man who I thought was a good person who secretly wanted his wife dead. Its a shame for his bandmates. They got screwed.

I'm an atheist and I kill my wives too. Good job Tim.

We haven't even heard Tim's side of the story, maybe she was just a real bitch

"when keeping it healthy goes wrong"

lol

This is pretty hard to believe. Tim just doesn't seem like the kinda dude that would resort to something like this. I understand that he did it cuz his wife was being selfish with the divorce. It sounds like he just did it for the sake of his kids, but come on Tim.

"Leave it to ButcheredChildren to know the economics in murder plots."

The market for assailants.* #butcheredeconomics

Huh key? I lost my faith like 3 years ago and it wasn't an act of rebellion, why you mocking me

Lambesis' lawyer comments:

Defence lawyer Anthony Salerno told reporters that Lambesis did not intend to harm anybody and was apparently set up by the man at the gym.

"Law enforcement was being fed something by someone that I strongly believe was a snitch, was out to save his own skin and was trumping things up, exaggerating things," Salerno said.

Lambesis was the founding member and integral part of the band. They should respect that regardless of
his wrongdoings. I imagine the rest of the band also want distance themselves from this event and
start fresh. If the remaining members were to continue with a new vocalist, I think they should at
least change the band name.

Why?

None of what you're saying makes sense.

Out of respect? Band members are replaced all the time.

Change the band name? Why? Their sound probably wouldn't change, it'd be pointless.

A couple of the comments on that site are hilarious

Guilty or not i know he's learned his lesson. And i honestly don't believe he's a danger to anyone. If i were one of the jury, i'd say NOT guilty.



money does some evil shit. and when you have two people fighting over it there really is no telling who beat who to the punch! who knows?? perhaps she beat HIM to the punch and set his ass up? with him in jail for 9 years she can pretty much walk with whatever she wants. Better not to pass judgment at all! never know what went on behind closed doors!

I only feel bad for the children

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh2sWSVRrmo

Through good times and bad there is always the music for a true artist.

Who you callin a curly headed fuck?

You can't hire someone to kill someone for one grand that's way too small

"I personally love the band and really lucked out when i got to see them including Tim before all of this. Guilty or not i know he's learned his lesson. And i honestly don't believe he's a danger to anyone. If i were one of the jury, i'd say NOT guilty."

Top 5 dumbest things I've ever read. I pray to god this person is never selected for jury duty, or ever votes

Oh god at those comments fish. I swear Christians will justify anything if it defends a person or a group that represents their religion/viewpoint in life. Even more retarded because Tim deconverted anyway.

or maybe they're just fanboys?

this is really a shame, but you can't fix being a dumbass

yeah you can, by not being a dumbass

OK bro, here's the 1000 bucks, how will I know that you'll actually do the job?

Faith my son

lololol, no really

yeah reading some of the comments on facebook and other places makes me cringe hard. people are so fucking stupid damn

lol ya

so....the woman in the video either has parkinsons or doesnt know how to read without PRONoUnCINg things like DocTOR SeUSs loLOLolOL

Dude can face up to 20 years but I can see him facing like 5 and the rest on probation.

"shut up, don't lend and excuse of reason. It's never justifiable to have someone killed. Can't we
just say that he did something bad williningly with no strings attached. Obviously I'm sure there's
more to the story. But that's going too far hard."

so you don't think it was justifiable to kill Osama Bin Laden, or Saddam Hussain?

so you don't it was justifiable to kill Osama Bin Laden, or Saddam Hussain?

WELL HELLO THERE ETHICS DISCUSSION, I totally didn't expect to see you here, hahahahblaglaubahlglagualhblaghlabuagh!

so you don't it was justifiable to kill Osama Bin Laden, or Saddam Hussain?

As I Lay Trying to Find A Good Attorney

that's not fixing being a dumbass, that's just not being a dumbass in the first place. if you're *already* a dumbass, then that's not an option available to you

i agree fish, just alot of people are hypocritical about this sort of thing

Shit wow lol

Maybe this is reason he became part of a death metal band haha

He shoulda gone the Gucci Mane way and said, "Bitch I might be!"

An Ocean between spouses but in all seriousness his butthole is gonna hurt for a long time

An Ocean Between Buttcheeks

Cmon no Varg smile?

I think Lambesis will be fine in jail, dudes a fucking buffed out tank of the Harm's Way vocalist
breed.

HA Fish that was a good one

And being a tank doesn't matter when your surrounded by 6 dudes with shanks made out of toothbrushes ready to take ur
butthole to the next level

how big are those 6 dudes

maybe his arse is so muscular that raping him is impossible?

Probably big considering there's nothing else to do in jail except work out or die pretty much

He can bust a adam sandler and mess with one of the biggest guys there to make a point

Yeah I'm sorry anyone with an IQ could tell that shit was fishy from the get go

Seriously his name was "Red"

This is completely insane.

I haven't seen anyone seriously say that so just sounds like you're being the touchy one here.

lakes the internet atheist, a sea of knowledge

Acts whiny and then tells others to grow the fuck up lmao

nice edit

What did he say before?

something like, "grow the fuck up, internet hates on god daily"

lol what a trainwreck

lol oh yeah I saw that actually I thought you were talking about his last comment. then pretends he doesn't know what I'm responding to. love it

Lol

You really trying to put the attention off yourself?

Kids are always looking for attention

And it's not completely irrevelevant, I was mocking people who would inevitably claim that he did this because he lost his faith

I like the people making 'christianity' comments, when the ironic thing is that this all happened after it sounds like he was no longer a christian. So it's...like...kind of the opposite of what you guys are saying.

lol well fuck me

fuck you Lakes

lakes isn't a kid, he's 16. he's mature now

2 Kings 2:23 24
"Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up the road, some youths came from the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!” So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the LORD. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths."

I wouldn't be surprised if freedomofspeechnoway was a lakes alt

do you think he's innocent Shadow?

he's definitely not innocent are you serious people

this shit is fucked O.o

he's just another rich bitch who can't deal with his problems normally so he should just fuck off

I wouldn't be surprised if freedomofspeechnoway was a lakes alt

He's guilty people

the latest news is pretty damning, but innocent till proven guilty

just like it doesn't make sense to blame a lack of faith like you kinda implied

Oh no, someone (didn't) blame this on his loss of faith! What an asshole!

Ezekiel 23:19
Yet she increased her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth when she engaged in prostitution in the land of Egypt. She lusted after their genitals – as large as those of donkeys, and their seminal emission was as strong as that of stallions.

What the actual fuck

Dude might as well just go ahead and plead guilty, he'll just look like a fool in the face of all the evidence. Not sure how he's planning on putting up a defense.

I hope he kills himself. I thought I used to look up to this asshole

yes you do or else you wouldn't post in this thread

lolwut, you're the dumbest arguer of semantics i've ever seen on this site

you didn't think shit

nah that was prob some sort of pop punk show

oh look the stereotypical "u mad" card

clever

if you're album is any good it will gain traction without excessive self-promotion

Guy seems to have had a serious depressive episode or something. Very very sad!

that's probably a good thing

well yeah i'm not into girls who look like emo guys so yeah i'd prob be a drag agreed

no i have a very good perception of what you are like

this has nothing to do with my view on what pop-punk shows are like

I've never been to a pop punk show like that.....

ugh andcas why do you have to make every thread about pop-punk damn

it's mostly kids under 20 with bad tattoos and an exaggerated sense of entitlement when it comes to women.

ugh andcas why do you have to make every thread about pop-punk damn

this seems really off, it almost feels like its an imposter... or roids

you're right, i'm into women

"you can blame shadow and users like him for being so one dimensional with their
weak insults"


no they are just using what little personality you have against you so at first this thread was cool
talking about the Lambesis case but now it's all about you like damn man why

you can blame shadow and users like him for being so one dimensional with weak insults

This thread was so good what happened

Well of course its sarcasm it went from a shitty metalcore vocalist thread to a pointless whatever is happening here something with pop punk and emo women with penises

I'd rather not seems lame

yea nobody cares except you andcas

Lol I'm not gonna watch that

good song but it's weird that you used a song to complete a thought

I said that it's a good song you illiterate pop punk listener goddamn

Was that an insult? I'm confused cause I didn't even check the link I just don't care

"the news, Meggan Lambesis discovered that her husband filed for divorce, and had a string of
sexual affairs with other women on tour."

Where's proof of this?

Gah I can't believe this

Faith No More is superb

This is beyond fucked up

He is fucked.

good

he's so done

Fish. let me insert parts of my original comment between yours. Maybe you will understand it better.

Out of respect? Band members are replaced all the time.

Lambesis was the founding member and integral part of the band. He's pretty much the face of As I
Lay Dying. Not to mention the band have been together for over a decade(or more). It must hurt to
lose a member that has embodied the band for so long.

When certain bands lose a member, that band can never be the same(Pantera, Sepultura). I'm not
saying that AILD are on this level, but to their hardcore fans they are. The remaining members
should keep that in mind when making a decision.

Change the band name? Why? Their sound probably wouldn't change, it'd be pointless.

I imagine the rest of the band want distance themselves from this event and
start fresh(has nothing to do with stylistic or sonic changes).

I'm happy with whatever they decide to do, but in my opinion this is the right decision.

I don't really listen to this band anymore but I could never see them trying to go on without Lambesis. They'd have to start a different band, it just wouldn't be the same.

Dude... It says he lost his faith in the article! Half this thread has already discussed that. Read before you post.

Is his wife hot?

This is all roid rage.

Your original comment is still dumb so nope not really getting anywhere here

him and ian watkins should become pen pals

I like how non says its pathetic to keep arguing....yet he keeps arguing

Man I feel bad for his wife.

Cheapest hitman ever.
All that lifting didn't help him become smarter.

Did he adopt those kids cuz they are quite brown.
Quick search showed his wife being white, oh the random.

He adopted one of them I think.

All three are adopted originally from Ethiopia

lol ok i'll read ALL 3452783k comments posted in this thread before posting my comment which i in no way intended it to boost some side of this prolly dumb argument.

You don't need to read the comments, It's in the article. I agree that the argument was dumb anyway(I had no involvement). It was basically a bunch of people arguing about Christianity when it has nothing do with this case.

$1000 isn't worth taking anyone's life, for one. If the cheap asshole would have paid a decent amount maybe it wouldn't have turned out this way. Also, he put these kids lives in way better circumstance than they were given in Ethiopia. I'm sure they'd turn out fine despite whatever christian misconceptions Mr. Lambesis has flowing through his head because his marriage wasn't working out. Goes to show he has no right to be a role-model in the first place since he hardly has a grasp on life himself, basically made himself a lie both to he and his fans. Fuck off, your band is boring and generically melodic and has only brought more shit to the once good metalcore table. Thanks for influencing a ton of shitty dime-a-dozen bands!

"the news, Meggan Lambesis discovered that her husband filed for divorce, and had a string of
sexual affairs with other women on tour."

Where's proof of this?

in news stories, divorce papers, from personal friends and family of tim, his wife

I was with you until this part

Fuck off, your band is boring and generically melodic and has only brought more shit to the once good metalcore table.
_

I can't belive anyone would defend this guy. He is so clearly guilty.

this is just too much
something will come out and change this cause there is just no way that this guy is that fucking
stupid

Sorry @NonApplicable, just still have a grudge for the style of metalcore that AILD popularized. So few bands try to explore anymore musically with the genre, they try to stick with a tried and true formula that was popularized by this band. They act like that's all there is. I don't really have a problem much with them personally, well other than they're always so goddamn melodic and their song formulas are boring, but in their time they did their craft quite well. It just sucks the more experimental and dissonant side of metalcore died off alot.

Oh my God wack you're in to this way too much. There's a ten million bands out there making music ten thousand ways so it's going to be okay

Not really, I don't really know what you're on about. Metalcore is pretty much dead, and AILD popularized the boring melodic style that they themselves were pretty good at.

Fair enough. You're right that Metalcore is a pretty stagnant genre, but I still love bands that can pull it off well.

Oh me too, I love me some good metalcore. Sucks alot of it's best bands fell to the wayside. Many of which weren't well known either.

man you really have to have lost it if your going around your local gym, the place you work out the most in your area where many of the same people come in regularly and see your face if you come on frequently as well, asking them if they know a hitman and be all cool about.

Musta thought he went to a gym full of scum

^^^^Sounds like the plot to that awful looking Michael Bay movie he just put out hahahaha.

Josh's voice has it moments. They should either continue with just him for now or he needs to find a new band. Latter would probably be better.

Look at all the arguing.

What a shame.

Unfortunately, it's hard to doubt that he's guilty at this point. I'm still so shocked at this whole situation.

Who isn't shocked at this whole situation?

Well, hopefully it all works out for the best. Whether that ends up with Tim in jail or bail, I just want more music. Pyrithion were sounding promising.

I'd say you wanting more music is pretty fucking selfish. The dude tried to murder his wife. He deserves to be behind bars and as far away from a stage and microphone as possible.

"Who isn't shocked at this whole situation?"

Honestly, I saw this coming

Roids probably fucked this dude up

What a dumb piece of shit

Esta es tu maldito gato cada noche estilo Jiangnan africana, voy a estar en su posición demasiado prisión climax

It surprised the shit about me to find out about this. Hope its not true.

This 'roud stuff sounds like some crazy stuff. Next thing you know we will all start hearing that Arnold Schwarzzenager has an illegitimate kid with his live-in maid that's been raised side by side with his own kids all unbeknownst to his wife and everyone else.

But that is true what are you talkin about

Wonder how this would of played out if he wasn't all roided out and I'm pissed because as I lay dying used to be my favorite band and it was the first metal album I bought and the first concert I went to and my first band tee. This is just really shitty idk what to think if he's guilty than fine he's an asshole I can accept that but fuck me I didn't see this coming

Happened to see AILD play the China gig on May 5th. Kind of sad knowing that might be my last time (my
first time actually) seeing Tim on stage with AILD.
A man pays for whatever choices he makes , christian or not.
Hopefully Tim would not stay too long in jail. Evidences seemed solid enough

really sad story

I wonder what the wife thinks of this right now. Must be pretty crazy knowing someone was seriously soliciting to have you killed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYPIixEBFyE

Here's a vid with some new stuff that I haven't heard with his lawyer and everything

"I wonder what the wife thinks of this right now. Must be pretty crazy knowing someone was seriously soliciting to have you killed."

She's terrified that he hired more hits on her.

this is fucking crazy lol

"Hopefully Tim would not stay too long in jail."

Hopefully he gets a fitting sentence because he fucking deserves it for attempting murder.

eh, I don't really care whether he did it or not tbh. New album will be a 3-3.5

"Hopefully he gets a fitting sentence because he fucking deserves it for attempting murder."

a fitting sentence? agreed
If the major motive for this murder-for-hire plot is trying to be a father and see his kids then its really sad
As a father-to-be I somewhat understand his feeling( apart from the murder plot part)
Tim lost his mind while loosing faith

Sucks that this is the only reason I am stopping myself from listening to the band. Once time has passed I'll try to get back into them again. Can't believe this...it's a bigger blow to metal than Randy Rhoades death was!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO5ojAxW53g


LMAO

Bill Maher rules

I didn't either I just watched the latest episode and was surprised to see that

I like maher most of the time. Sometimes he comes across so pompous I can't even watch him. He actually went EXTREMELY easy on the band though

That was funny.

Because Bill Maher is relevant.

He could get up to 9 years? They filed for like $250k on their tax return so he'll have a decent lawyer, enter a guilty plea with a bargain, and do 2-3.

"It’s been revealed that Lambesis had emailed his wife back in August, informing he no longer
loved her, and how he didn’t believe in being a Christian anymore. A short time after he broke
the news, Meggan Lambesis discovered that her husband filed for divorce, and had a string of
sexual affairs with other women on tour."

Even if he were found not guilty of this hitman shit, this would be enough reason not to like this dingleberry. He obviously got pumped using steroids, changed his appearance, started getting looks from hotter women, then gave up on his life.

Fuck Tim. I hope he meets a lot of boyfriends in the slammer. Good thing he's no longer a Christian.

Bill maher is awesome but I can see why people don't like him

if he's no longer a christian then why is maher talking about him

was a Christian, not anymore soooo

The only people who don't like Bill Maher are the people who share the opinions of those he targets in his comedy

This is just sick.

i had not idea he was worth so much money!! Anyone know what else he invested in outside of AILD?

he's apparently worth 14 million

also he kinda looks like amanda bynes

LMFAO

god damn it, fuck it

"roid rage" defense is gonna fall on it's face. Even in cases of extreme abuse most people will have surges and can be highly irritable, but actively seeking out someone over a period of time to murder your estranged wife is obviously something that is pre meditated. The guy needs psychological help and a hefty prison sentence.
