Its true.. They were supposed to sign with EVR with Betrayed. Betrayed will still be releaseing something EVR if in not mistaken though.

TOTAL BUMOUT I have loved that band since the first time I saw them in 03. I am sad they are going but atleast they are going out on top.

I started gettiing into a lot of tradish and posi this summer...now its like all I listen to, I really can't change my sn but oh well.

[Doug]

no, i seriously believe this.

i mean, there are hardcore bands that i can get into, but those are the only ones that i really honestly like at this point.

[ForeverInADay]

that's gay. Now who's Betrayed supposed to tour with all the time?

Kidding

But seriously sucks, especailly since they just put out the split with betrayed. Fuck.

your only looking on the very top. There are some amazing hardcore bands right now.. Those are jus two of the best knowns ones. Have Heart, Hope Con is still around, Cash In, Guns Up!, Shipwreck, Modern Life is War, Panic is playing some shows again. All excellent hardcore bands.

They will play with bands that arent champion...

[brokenstartrio]

this is very depressing...never saw them live and i guess i am going to drive out to see there last few!

[Bozan]

:O

But I think this is the more popular Us posi band, and they getting bigger these last times.

A lot of bands sounds like Champion, espescially in Europe (Holland/Belgium first).

but it's sad. I'm sure members form Champion going to form new bands really close to this one.

[KarolaBloch]

i fucking love champion

[AreTwoKay]

And now my day is ruined

[Emopunkthrice]

damn they were just out here with the warriors in december.

[i said poop]

i enjoy champion, too bad the last time i saw them in houston it was rather dissapointing.

they have an upcoming split 7"/cd with betrayed coming out soon. you can preorder this now...the 7" will be pressed in two colors, one of them only available to the preorders. champion vinyl will once again be ebay gold now that they are breaking up. their record release 12" went for over $140 ebay, then the price dropped to around $40....i bet its gonna shoot right back up.

if this is true, this fucking sucks, I love champion, one of the best hardcore bands ever.

whoa, wouldn't go that far... They were ok, but overrated. And shitty live.
