Fuck Craig Owens,
it takes more than one guy to make a band.
He's a good singer, sure.
That doesn't mean that they aren't a good band.
People give that asshole too much damn credit.

no offense, but drumming can (and has) been replaced, same for guitars, bass and keys...a person's voice is distinctive, and at least for me, Craig's voice was what I loved about Chiodos. Not that the rest of the band wasn't important...I don't really care much for his side/solo stuff but Chiodos PLUS Craig was what I loved...The sum of the whole is much much greater than the parts.

Attack Attack! not looking for new vocalist
Tim Karan on 10/22/09 @ 3:26 PM
Attack Attack!, who lost their vocalist Nick Barham earlier this week, have released a statement about the split. The band are not in search of a replacement for Barham and synth op Caleb Shomo will take over the screaming vocals. Drummer Andrew Wetzel said, "Why hello boys and girls! Thought we'd throw you all a quick little update about what's currently going on in the AA! lineup. The band and Nick parted ways recently in a mutually agreed non-explosive fashion, which we all believe is the best for both sides.
Caleb is going to retire his keys and start screaming in the front of the band. We DO NOT have a new person in our band.
Don't worry, our music will still be full of Caleb's programming, keys, and all the good things he concocts. It will just be back-tracked live with the 808 samples and other nonsense on my iPod.
Anyways, we're not gonna stop touring, playing shows, and having a generally wonderful time with all of you."
See you in your town soon!

I can't decide if this is a good thing or not... I guess I need to see how good Mr. Shomo is at screaming.

Oh yeah he screamed at the Salt Lake Warped tour the band as a whole wasn't that good that day and I didn't like Barham's scream but Caleb was way good live. They're definitely taking a huge step for the better, no offense to Nick.

I don't know about this, Caleb retiring from his keys, to do vocals might not be the best step for them. I think his voice isn't powerful enough for this lineup change but that is just me, good luck boys

bc13 is Brokencyde? Damn kids and your acronyms. Anyway, I said they're not as bad as Brokencyde. BrokenCyde is the shittiest thing to ever happen to music. EVER. They raped music and left her on the side of the road leaking sperm.
