Originally known as The Chiodos Bros. - a tribute to the filmmakers responsible for the cult classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Chiodos have since become one of the most influential post-hardcore bands on the circuit. After a formative few years in which they toured, released EPs and wrote material for a debut full-length, they finally dropped the aptly-titled ‘All’s Well That Ends Well’ in 2005, which they followed up with a well-received slot on that year’s Warped Tour, and support slots to the likes of Atreyu and Cohhed and Cambria.
Upheaval was to lie ahead, though; after the success of album number two, ‘Bone Palace Ballet’, the band fired frontman Craig Owens in 2009, just after a tour with Nine Inch Nails had further helped place them on the map. Their next album, 2010’s ‘Illuminaudio’, was a success within the genre, but a further reshuffle followed once touring duties were completed; both replacement singer Brandon Bolmer and sticksman Tanner Wayne announced their departures in March 2012, with Owens quickly ushered back into the fold - his first recorded contributions since his return can be heard on ‘Devil’, the band’s first record in four years, which was released on April 1st, 2004.
I saw Chiodos at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, OH. It is a great 2 story venue that is standing room only. The venue holds around 1500 people and it was packed. They had a standard set-up on stage with the band name Chiodos in on a red back drop.
The guys were dressed in standard attire of jeans and t-shirts. The crowd was really with the band the whole way. Dancing and singing along with every song. This helped the band be even more involved with the show. All of them played their hearts out and seemed to leave a piece of themselves in the venue with the crowd.
Dead Now was probably my favorite part of the show. I love that song and Craig had the audience singing most of the song themselves. Bradley was going to town on the keyboard and head banging out. Pat was all over the stage interacting with every other member of the group.
The also did a really awesome acoustic version of Under Your Halo. It was one of the better rock concerts I have been to and can't wait to see them live again! I think they are a definite must see for all of their fans, you will not be disappointed with their show.
They played in a cozy venue, which I loved because the fans can connect with the band. They really interacted with all of us and put on one HELL of a show. They have so much energy and will not disappoint. Donovan Melero plays both the drums and does vocals. He will do so during the show, but also has a fill in drummer for some of the songs so he can really belt it out. These guys are all so talented. Got to meet some of them after the show too and they're nice guys.
Just go already.
