D.R.U.G.S. Members Quit
 
In light of Craig Owens rejoining Chiodos, the other members of D.R.U.G.S. - Matt Good, Nick Martin and Aaron Stern - have left the band.
StatementAfter much thought and consideration we (Matt Good, Nick Martin and Aaron Stern) have decided to announce that we will be moving on from D.R.U.G.S. This decision has not been easy to make, and we want to express how grateful we are for all of you who have supported us and made this the incredible experience it has been over the past couple of years. We’ll always look back on our time in this band with pride, and have no regrets about the music we’ve made or the people we’ve made it with. We want to thank everyone who has believed in us, and we hope you’ll keep believing in us. We look forward to the future, and we know we’ll be seeing you again soon, no matter where our paths lead next.

inevitable.

Redpaperkut 04/27/12 08:51 AM

Good news.

centennial. 04/27/12 08:54 AM

bring back FFTL and write the follow up of throne to the wolves

Ricketts 04/27/12 08:55 AM

This is the best thing that could've happened. The more creative attention Craig gives to Chiodos, the better. I have to wonder though, you think the other members of DRUGS knew about Chiodos reuniting? Not that I care. I didn't like that band and I fucking love Chiodos, so yay.

bobby runs 04/27/12 08:55 AM

So did Craig not tell the rest of the band abut rejoining CHiodos?

CallMeTroy 04/27/12 08:55 AM

Lol at everything.

Exactly my thoughts.

jasn88cubs 04/27/12 08:58 AM

sweet FFTL reunion!

Sherrice 04/27/12 08:58 AM

Chuck! 04/27/12 08:58 AM

Oh boy.

I see that as almost impossible

Maybe they don't have bad blood over this? I would certainly like a new CinSun record. Although Chiodos JUST got back together so we should probably focus on that for now.

Jake Jenkins 04/27/12 09:00 AM

Thank god but lol isn't this essentially the same reason Craig got booted from chiodos?

luvsickcatalyst 04/27/12 09:00 AM

This is quite the shitshow going on here.

kboe@bex.net 04/27/12 09:00 AM

i'm sure they'll have no problem moving on to the next trendy thing

This, and give it a proper tour.

here is better news since AP is slow... new TEN

Acad08 04/27/12 09:04 AM

I would certainly love a new Cinematic record...that'd be glorious!

So DRUGS is over and Chiodos is back on...that's cool too!

Hey thanks! I was waiting for that.

Jack Appleby 04/27/12 09:04 AM

Well that's kinda funny, and saves the trouble of Craig calling the band off.

HeavenResign 04/27/12 09:07 AM

Well damn. For the best, I'm sure. Wonder if this thread will be bigger than the Craig rejoining Chiodos thread.

COREhorizon 04/27/12 09:07 AM

Oh. Haha

TheRealJohnOC 04/27/12 09:09 AM

Underminded Reunion?!?!

B.Leibo 04/27/12 09:10 AM

Well duh, but still... kind of weird that they had to announce this.. def seems like the other members were left in the dark.

ScorchOurBodies 04/27/12 09:11 AM

As much as I would love to see an FFTL reunion, I doubt it will happen. I'm going to bet that Matt moves on to electronic music and tried to be like Sonny. I hope not though.

And bring Sonny back! I'm sure he's not doing much these days..

jon. 04/27/12 09:11 AM

Such an awful band.

Almost sounds like it.

prolly right. Travis Richter has gotten himself into electronic music now

plus you need Travis for a FFTL reunion and Matt kicked him out

luqmanhakim 04/27/12 09:18 AM

You don't say.

Brandonmorrill 04/27/12 09:20 AM

.... and no one cares.

Shaymojack 04/27/12 09:21 AM

Well, I guess that answers the question of how Craig will balance both bands.

ZachMadeMeOdd 04/27/12 09:21 AM

The only thing i'd like to see come of this is to have Tanner who is now done with Chiodos and Nick Martin get Underminded going again. I personally liked Their second full length a lot and they had a good live show. Otherwise. Who cares, i'm tired of nonsense like this with every scene band.

Full Effect Ed 04/27/12 09:22 AM

Weren't they recording a new album with Feldmann?

Matt's doing electric music too. Travis has said on his Facebook he'd be down for a reunion if the other guys wanted to, and I know he and Matt are friends again. Who knows what will happen? I'm not holding my breath.

damn electronic music!

Sawhney[rusted] 04/27/12 09:23 AM

Does this mean that I can join D.R.U.G.S. now with my friends? Hmmm....

ParkwayTom 04/27/12 09:24 AM

Figured this would happen. They sucked anyway.

jewdeenee 04/27/12 09:24 AM

How about the " bring back to 2004" tour.

FFTL with Sonny
Matchbook Romance
Fall Out Boy (without the burned out egos yet)
Saosin with Anthony Green

PS. and never do dub-step again.

How to Write a Bland Press Release About a Band Breaking Up 101

irthesteve 04/27/12 09:26 AM

well this seems depressing for them, but i'm cool with it

Sheluligans 04/27/12 09:26 AM

This is perfect. Now there has to be a new Chiodos record.

Nickisonfire 04/27/12 09:26 AM

DRUGS sucked anyways.

mikeisonfire 04/27/12 09:27 AM

Just like how I was looking forward to a second album from Chiodos 2.0, I was also anticipating a second Destroy album. Their debut album didn't hit all of the right notes, but it still had incredible potential because of the folks involved. I really thought the future releases of both these bands would've been quite impressive. So many mixed feelings regarding these announcements.

$0.02
