CHIODOS: IT’S NOT YOU, IT’S ME TOUR

Chiodos was an American post-hardcore band from Davison, Michigan. Formed in 2001, the group was originally known as "The Chiodos Bros," the band's name was a tribute to filmmakers Stephen, Charles, and Edward Chiodo, responsible for the film Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Chiodos released their first full-length album, titled All's Well That Ends Well, on July 26, 2005. Their second album, Bone Palace Ballet, was released in North America on September 4, 2007 and debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 and number 1 on the Independent Albums. Warner Bros. Records released Bone Palace Ballet on January 26, 2009, as part of a new distribution deal in the UK. They released their third studio album, Illuminaudio in 2010, and it was the only studio album to feature Brandon Bolmer as lead vocalist and Tanner Wayne as drummer. The band released their fourth and final album, Devil on April 1, 2014, which marked the return of original vocalist Craig Owens and fan favorite drummer Derrick Frost.

“On the more frenetic side of the spectrum, Pittsburgh’s 156/Silence are an unhinged force to be reckoned with. The band’s latest, Undercover Scumbag , is gauntlet of swinging riffs, primal drums, and howled lyrics about the dark side of everyday existence. Above all, vocalist Jack Murray’s reckless and pained shrieks add an air of believable angst to their sound, and will remind listeners of artsy hardcore bands like Scarlet and Zao. Though one hears more hardcore than any other genre in the band’s smear of influences, it’s 156/Silence’s ability to experiment with and draw inspiration from genres like noise and thrash that sets them apart from the crowd-killing pack.”
