took one look at that guy, and proceeded to make a lambgoat comment.

Damn this is an original idea. Go do some fcking dishes you women, jesus.

1st post ever on this site after years of visiting. These bands need to get damn jobs instead of asking broke fans for fckin money. Shit they're asking fans to fund an album/tour then pay AGAIN to buy the cd/tickets. What the fck... moochin bastards.

That one dude looks strung out on meth

anonymous 6/22/2013 7:25:35 PM

if you can;t make your money on the road maybe its time to pack it in guys...

anonymous 6/22/2013 8:20:19 PM

this dude has his eyebrow pierced? in 2013? naw player i'm not giving you shit.

anonymous 6/22/2013 8:34:33 PM

HANDOUT NATION. fck these jerks. Get jobs, write better music (so people will actually buy it), sell merch, DO SOMETHING gayS. fck this generation of panhandling shitheads.

i launched one of these for my child support and family violence charges!

Asking for money for recording is one thing (that I don't agree with) But asking for money to tour? Isn't that how bands make money in the first place? fcking hell guys

anonymous 6/23/2013 5:28:12 AM

If there's not enough people to come out and buy tickets to see you play on tour and pay your way to the next show, then you should definitely not be going on tour.

What happened to hard work and doing things yourself? fck this guy and fck his band. How dare you ask for people's hard earned money in times like this, when the economy is in the gutter. If you're bands operating at a loss and you have to go online and beg for money, its time to call it quits.

Nothing like a paid vacation from reality.

anonymous 6/23/2013 9:47:50 AM

really hope people stop funding these mediocre gays

anonymous 6/23/2013 11:13:09 AM

I dont have a problem with donating to bands that I support to continue putting out albums because times are hard and yes making albums on your own DAW may not provide the best results sonically, but asking for money to tour is quite another world here buddy.

anonymous 6/23/2013 12:06:44 PM

I used to like this band until this very moment. If you need $15K donations + merch + guarantee money + per diem + tips just to tour, you should disband. It's a sign.

anonymous 6/23/2013 12:51:38 PM

No money huh? then how come your studio is bigger than my apt? Ever heard of something called "WORKING" for money? Maybe you guys should try it out sometime.

anonymous 6/23/2013 2:23:16 PM

Eyebrow ring flip.

anonymous 6/23/2013 2:23:56 PM

2001 metal is stoked. Get a job, you fcking pussies.

naw player naw player naw player naw player naw player naw player naw player naw player naw player naw player

anonymous 6/23/2013 4:09:06 PM

thats cute. "only gas money" I was lucky to get that on tour for fck sake and if we didnt then we had to dip into something else like shirt or cd sales. I guess I came up in a different time in hardcore to give a fck about another lame metal core band and their whining for money.

anonymous 6/23/2013 4:22:33 PM

For a $1500 donation the band will personally give you aids

anonymous 6/23/2013 5:55:58 PM

This is fcked up, and if successful will set a really bad precedent for touring. Maybe Chimaira and their booking agent should try and look out for the opening bands a little more. Next time this promoter wants to offer a band $100 a show, he'll have a think and be like 'I can give you $50 a show and I would recommeend crowdfunding, it worked for these guys'. There's not even the option here to buy a ticket to the gig! I'm all for crowdfunding albums but this can fck off.

anonymous 6/23/2013 7:34:40 PM

wait just one fcking minute.... threat signal are still a band? these gays should have given up in 2006

RickRock 6/24/2013 9:00:18 AM

I want to pony up a grand and have them cover "Hitler Was A Sensitive Man" by rear c*nt or just about anything from Johnny Rebel. They'd balk, I'd sue, LOLZ would be had.
