Chiodos Co-Headlining Fall Tour with Motion City Soundtrack
Author: spencer24 Jul
CHIODOS have just announced a co-headlining tour with Motion City Soundtrack this Fall. That’s cool, assuming homeboy can get his shit together. It’s pretty bold, actually, that Chiodos’ handlers are assuming Owens will be ready for life back on the road after his overdose and subsequent stay in a mental health facility. Cross your fingers for Craig folks.
From their publicists:
With frontman Craig Owens appearing on the latest cover of Alternative Press–for the second time in less than a year (October 2007, September 2008)–Flint, MI’s CHIODOS continue to gain momentum, almost a year after the release of their hugely successful second album BONE PALACE BALLET. Released in September 2007 on indie label Equal Vision Records, the album debuted at #5 on Billboard’s Top 200 Album Chart. Critical praise for their compelling post-hardcore music–from outlets, including New York Times, Blender, Billboard, Hollywood Reporter, Revolver, Village Voice and UK’s Kerrang! (see quotes below)–has helped bolster sales of the set to over 157,000 copies.
A mainstay on the road, with international appearances spanning clubs, arenas and major rock festivals, CHIODOS has announced their latest tour: a co-headlining fall U.S. trek with Motion City Soundtrack. Set to kick off September 22 in Louisville, KY, the band will bookend the tour with headlining shows across the continental U.S., Alaska and Mexico. Tickets for the tour go on sale to the public Friday, July 25, check www.myspace.com/chiodos for more information.
Here’s our sweet live footage of them from SXSW. More sweet Chiodos words and tour dates after the jump.
Craig Owens from Chiodos Attempts to O.D. on Drugs, Checks Into a Mental Health Clinic
Author: Daniel Taylor21 Jul
As described in a post on his own web site that has since been deleted, Chiodos / Cinematic Sunrise frontman Craig Owens apparently almost overdosed on drugs last night, and has since checked himself in to a mental health facility:
so, after an attempted overdose early yesterday morning, i found myself awake in the emergency room around 8 - 12 hours later.
however, don’t worry about me, i’m fine. i am being checked into a mental clinic beginning tomorrow at 8 am.
i’d like to apologize to everyone at Power Chord Academy, for me not being able to make it to speak to all of the kids tomorrow in Chicago. i promise to make it up, the best that i can and hopefully will be able to reschedule the entire event.
wish me luck, and let’s hope that i learn from this, and that i am able get out very soon.
craig.
