From The Interview

I don't really know how else to describe it other than there's this new sense of self, there's this new driving force in the band that has never been there before and we all like each other, which is something that hasn't really happened in a long time.

From Facebook

I wish Nick, Aaron & Matt the best of luck in moving forward, in whatever it is that they decide to do. They are all very talented individuals and I have no doubt that they will succeed no matter what it is they choose to do next. They stood next to me during one of the most difficult times in my life and I will never be able to thank them enough for what it is that they did for me. I wish them the best of luck and I hope, most of all, that they continue to make music. They're extremely talented and professional musicians and music fans should be treated to their...

Last week blogs went buzzing about the departure of two members from Chiodos. Speculation also spread like wildfire about a possible return to the group from former frontman Craig Owens. This week I've been jotting down some thoughts on why an original line-up of any band is so important to us. What makes one person's addition or subtraction so crucial to any band? Do we sometimes hold onto the past so much, that we constantly base our future expectations on one album or song written years earlier? Give the piece a read, and let us know your thoughts on it in the replies. I'm very interested in the examples you guys come up with on this one.

In light of certain rumors this week, one of our staff members sat down with Craig Owens to talk about a lot of the hearsay that's been going around the Internet about a possible return to front Chiodos once again. Head to the replies to watch the exclusive video interview.

Chiodos have released a statement regarding the recent line-up changes.

Message from the Band

Hey everybody. Long time no update, we know. We figure it is about time for one after seeing the news today, that you’ve likely seen by now also. Unfortunately, Tanner and Brandon have decided to leave the band. We have been at a stagnant state for the last six months, so the fact that they are ambitious to move on with their lives is totally justified and understandable. We’ve had some killer experiences with them and were able to write one of our proudest albums with them in the hardest of times as a band. We ask for all of our fans continued respect and support towards them and us in our...
