  • That said, I love that Chiodos has kept their spazzy side.

  • He kicks the shit outta Craig Owens, Jonny Craig, Vic Fuentes, Tyler Carter, Hance Alligood, Josh Moore (Beloved), Andy Biersack, Bruce Dickinson, and just about any other singer I can think of. He's become my favorite.

  • @ledzeprox666666 Bruce Dickinson? Please leave him untouched, he sings in different way and cannot be compared to Brandon.

  • In this video you can see the best vocalist in post-hardcore

  • any1 no where ican buy his jacket?

  • the argument between craig and brandon is pointless, its no different than the craig and ronnie flame war. Without dropping craig from the band they would not have been able to continue.

  • I was a die hard Craig fan but I agree with a lot of people they both have very different styles. Craig was more metal ish with chiodos but I kinda like Brandon with them

  • I love Brandon. I will marry this man. I will.

  • Fuck ! That was simply awesome. And hell, Craig is better in his own way alright. Thumbs up !!

  • With Brandon Bolmer Chidos is less gay..im sorry but it's true.

  • @ferovader419 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHaHA­HAHAHA

  • Such an amazing song!<3 Does anyone what kind of bass Matt is using?

  • Hey what's with all of you hating brandon. If craig didn't leave then we wouldn't have D.R.U.G.S.!!!

  • @Caraphernalia343 True. D.R.U.G.S. is fucking amazing. New Chiodos is... okay.

  • This isn't Chiodos. but it is a good song

  • @Pujols050 it kinda is chiodos hahaha

  • This is a pretty solid performance!

  • i think i prefer craigs studio stuff especially with DRUGS but live, i think brandon is almost more consistant. and his screams are soooo fucking awesome. thooough,

    craig has gotten better with keeping it together live since he was kicked out of chiodos.

  • that guy reminds me of Saosin's singer. cove or some shit.

  • The ONLY thing wrong with their new singer is that he sings some of the songs from when they had Craig differently which kinda bothers me but other than that he is way better.

  • if you ask me i think craig owens and brandon bolmer are both amazing and the band is amazing with both singers just completely different music styles with craig it pleased the metal fans more

  • @MegaDudarino Don't ever put craig or brandon in the same sentence as Metal. They are far from it. You are fucking stupid.

  • i love the drummer and the singers screams <3

  • his singing is much better than i expected. being a huge craig fan, I wanted to automatically hate him but i cant his vocals are so good

  • I wanna scream like him!

  • i think vocal accuracy wise he is a lot better then craig. im a fan!

  • FuelTV has terrible sound guys... Come on, this is a live performance for TV, you could do better with the sound...

  • I like how this is tagged with Craig Owens lmao

  • Love the screams but brandon need to let it all out instead just walking around and singing, he need to move and mosh around the stage while singing. . .he would look better that way and they're stage presence will be much much, i mean, much better^^,)

  • @niceboy20027 he can't really go nuts, it's a tv show XD I'm sure at warped tour he moves around a lot more :p

  • @snosock hahahahaha,but it would be really nice if he'd do that^^,)

  • D.R.U.G.S > New Chiodos.

  • screaming is for babies.

  • Okay in my View-

    Craig Owens- Much better at clean vocals, OKAY at screams

    Brandon Bolmer- Average on clean vocals, MUCHMUCHMUCHMUCH better at screams.. i mean i love how his screams are all held in and like really clean.

  • The performance wasn't that bad at all, but the idiot who mixed all of this need to ballsack smacked

  • screams are fuckin bad ass.

  • not gonna lie was a little disappointed with the clean lyrics and how they didnt play the full song... dont get me wrong it was still kickass and he has awesome screams live too thats cool

  • new or old, chiodos still kicks ass !

  • i don't care about the singer, i care about the band.

  • @sesramses11 nononononononononononononono. no. no. nono.no. ok?

  • just saw them in the house of blues in anaheim on friday! we sang Brandon happy birthday while he was on stage and they brought him a cupcake with a candle, took pictures with him after..oh and CHIODOS is BADASS live!!!!

  • 2:16 BADASS drop

  • brandon is very good but nothing can replase good ol craig :c

  • get a new sound guy fuse

  • hes good, but craig owens is better

  • @deathangelfdn always has to be "that guy" go listens to DRUGS then. you have two bands now. be thankful

  • Singer has an odd similarity to Cove

  • @bandanaface i know exactly what you mean

  • I'd love it if he managed to guest appear or have a side project with someone else (think The Sound of Animals Fighting) as a pure screamer. It'd be kick ass.

  • AMAZING.

  • Fuck, that's an amazing scream, new or old, Chiodos is fucking amazing :D

  • I'd never heard of Chiodos when I saw them live a couple months ago, and I immediately came home and looked them up. Personally, I like their new singer better. Plus, he is AMAZING live. He is also more into the show at smaller shows, like the one I saw them at. If I had to go on tv as the new guy, I'd be shitting bricks too. Cut him some slack.

  • It sounded like every time he sang clean it was off key or voice cracking. Not trolling, just an opinion and I felt like I should express it for no good reason.

  • nah. Craig Owens.

  • @fireboi55 Trololol.

  • @TakeOnNE1 word

  • Brandon is really good live now, I saw them a while ago, it was amazing!

  • @ismynamecoolenough sorry Haha :-)

  • @ismynamegoodengough I do admit, brandon does have a nasty scream! I love it on hard copy! Hell, I listen to it all the time. I just hope that he warms up and gets the nerves out cause chiodos is coming to town and im hesitant to pay to see them.

  • OMG!!! Brandon can scream/growl whatever! STANDING STILL!! Craig Owens would have been in the crowd! Therefore.... NO OWNAGE!!

  • @heisarmorforchiodos

    Yeahh, but you need to admit that Brandon's scream sounds much more powerful than Craig's ever did. Plus I don't blame him for standing still, he's probably ridiculously nervous, seeing as he was going on TELEVISION as the "new guy" in Chiodos.

  • @IsMyNameCoolEnough The spotlight is on him, those, he has Craig Owen's shadow over him. I think can match up to him. :)

  • 1:03 craig owens just got owned.

  • Yeah I've seen them 5 times pre new lead/drummer, hence my name, I was infatuated with Chiodos. Craig use to bring Sooo much energy to the stage! I do own the new album and it sounds good coming the trough the speakers, but im just not feeling the live show. :-(

  • Let me start by saying I love both old and new Chiodos but In all honesty I think that chiodos sounds better now and the ex singer sounds better with his new band Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows so all in all its a win win . PS. Scary Kids Scaring Kids Degenerates is a bad ass song check it out . I'm out like a fetus motherlovers peace .

  • Man, i love how this lead singer has absolutly NO stage presence! I was kinda bored watching this.... I Miss Craigery

  • @heisarmorforchiodos Agreed. Lol i think only the drummer and keyboardist have stage presence, The rest look like they're just standing around. Sounded good though.

  • 1:02-1:11 it sounds just like underoath

  • when will fuel ever learn to mix music???

  • when will they ever learn how to mix music????

  • chiodos replace band members every few months.. maybe sooner. chiodos haven't been chiodos since they went from chiodo bros to chiodos

  • i like old chiodos. but new chiodos is pretty badass

  • Chiodos without Craig or Derrick is not Chiodos, but a shadow of their former selves....i miss the true Chiodos

  • holy shit.....he inhales, damn. @1:43

  • @stdj101 not an inhale. a voice crack.

  • @MyphriendSam look at his throat, it pulls in

  • @stdj101 You must be new to the whole "screaming/vocals" thing. That little spot where his throat pulls in? Yeah that happens when you sing higher pitched too if you're a guy. same thing happens if you strain your vocal chords when screaming or when you yell. Don't just look for every single flaw you can in this amazing singer just because you personally don't think he fits the band, when honestly, he does given the bands new sound.

  • @MyphriendSam im not knew to vocalism at all, and i know how to scream and i know the difference in throat look between an inhale and an exhale. and i do love the knew chiodos sound and hes a great vocalist, i wasnt insulting him

  • FuelTV, Whoever is mixing your live shows is fucking terrible.

  • no one realizes the change in quality when you hear it recorded and when its live. brandon sounds amazing live, you know this if youve seen him

  • brandons a good singer, just doesnt fit chiodos in my opinion

  • the new singer sucks camel dicks live

  • @Bonchika

    You know that every singer is a little off live, right?! And every performance is different. So.. if they seem off at this show they may be fucking amazing at the next show. It all depends. You can't base the vocalist on one performance. Brandon is fucking amazing btw whether on an album or live.

  • Not everyone is perfect live every time. He's a great singer just a little off here.

  • there still godd as a band but i just recently saw them live and it wasnt the same it sucked

  • two words: FUCKING AMAZING!

  • watch?v=ZYf1mZx_A6s <--- for anyone that says Brandon sucks live, epic perforamce!!

  • @amdimeglio1 Did you reply to my comment not only without listening to the album, but also not watching the video? Must have.

  • i'm pretty amazed at how terribly mixed this is. it would probably be pretty epic though if the drums didn't sound like they were a mile away

  • mediocre at best... dudes a good a singer but not a good replacement :/

  • I met the the singer and key board player on friday night. suuuuper nice people. as long as they know your not drunk out of your mind. they will talk to you. :)

  • @rufas182 Ohh erm... can u introduce them to me? some social network perhaps? mail?

  • @dajapa Brandon and brad have Facebook and they usually add there fans, u can try that. sorry this is super late haha 6 months later..

  • Comment removed

  • His screams are amazing

  • why can't he do any highs?

  • yeah some of the notes were a little off but hell of a lot better than i could do! scream sounds great. all in all great live performance imo. great band.

  • They sound SO much like the album. Sorry but youd be retarded to feel otherwise

  • Saw these guys last night. They were amazing!

  • Needs to sort his breathing out to keep hold of the longer notes...they just fell short an flat. Other then that not bad.

  • i disagree. i think the only time hes not hitting the pitches right is during the chorus only when he says "Youre afriad when youre afraid." eveything else sounds pretty much like the album version. lovin the screams! 

  • He's really off key, catastrophically off key. More than half of the notes were not hit right.

  • @Abscurat Craig let the audience sing most of his shit and when he did sing it wasn't amazing so this is an improvement. I still love the Craig studio stuff though

  • amazing!!

  • jesus this guy is horrid at singing...screaming is good...

  • @TheRavic23 He's an excellent singer.

  • @creepinoutsara not one bit. He's off key...The way i see it if you can't perform half as well as you do on your CD's than its a good bet that you're a shitty singer and have to rely on audio enhancement to make yourself sound halfway decent, which is the case with this guy.

  • @TheRavic23 he's not off key. at all. and it's difficult to sound good on certain songs and carry good tone when your drummer is rushing the tempo.

  • @kasinecz yes he is. :33 he's off key. 1:19 off key again. and again about 3 second later...actually he's off key throughout most of  the chorus. he..is..TERRIBLE live. U mad?

  • @TheRavic23 No, you're allowed an Opinion, i just don't agree. He's a little flat, but thats a style thing. it takes a lot more than that to be off key.

  • @kasinecz Flat it is then. i win

  • @TheRavic23 Glad this youtube conversation is so imporant to you.

  • @kasinecz u mad?

  • @TheRavic23 nope. entertained.

  • @kasinecz i win again

  • @TheRavic23 You sure do, preaching Vocals to me when you don't know the difference between being out of Key and stylisitcally being flat.

  • Damn he should scream more. He is great at singing and screaming.

  • He's wearing a long sleeved shirt, jacket, and a hat - either he's trying to be hardcore or he's sick. Which would explain the crappy stage presence.

  • @JayseWeaver Or he's just wearing clothes. Without meaning. His stage presence is fine.

  • man what an amazing voice for a live act!!

  • @Sssschiller Must be a change from all the shitty live bands you listen to ? I haven't had that problem.

  • @creepinoutsara well i thought about bands like adtr...but of course there are other ones like this, for example underoath, alexisonfire or architects

  • Their new singer is so sick, I just wish he had better stage pressance.

  • @kasinecz I hope you mean presence. Wish you had better grammar.

  • @creepinoutsara I wish you understood the definition of words, because clearly my issue is spelling.

  • fucking awesome! I hate when bands play live and all cameras focus on is the lead singer though.

  • @Bonnaroo10klmf Sometimes you have to accept and conform. They aren't focusing on the singer, He just happens to be in the middle. It's an implied focus. If the drummer were front center stage, He'd be the spotlight.

  • This guy is a FUCKIN MAN!!! Love it, he is cove reber with balls. Hes like incubus quality man. Saosin are sad they passed him up back in the day... Chiodos I am now a believer you guys are perfect with this guy! LIVE IS AMAZING

  • chode

  • Tanner Wayne is bad motherfucker.

  • @dewinged420 By far my favorite Dummer, he like straight moshes while he plays :)

  • he dosnt move around alot does he? killer voice singing and screaming, but he looks bored

  • @dkeller20m Studio Audiance... Cant really expect much, watch them play at a show, their awesome

  • @fcastro71293 wow dude. If your gonna insult me, do it right! Fucking twat can't even spell! What a fagget....just go die in a hole.

  • still amazing even without craig

  • seeing them tmrw with emarosa and go radio

  • *speechless* Absoulutely Amazing. <3

    I am literally in love with chiodos.

  • its weird not seein craig up there :(

    but i think he fits well

  • Comment removed

  • I was there

  • Chiodos sound way better with the new singer and new sound.

  • If this were the recorded version of the song on the album, i'm sure all the haters would realize they're still the same chiodos with a similar but different style of singing. The recorded version was edited way too much. This raw, this is good.

  • Matt doesn't look too enthusiastic about being with Brandon here....i just saw the deep rock drive vault session that they did in 08 with Craig and Matt was all chill and headbanging with everybody...but not here :P ugh, this sucks. my honest opinion is that im happy for them but i also miss craig. but im still a Chiodos fan regardless of whoever is singing or playing. whatever, hate me for this but i speak what i believe in.

  • wtf, he can scream AND sing very good live.... great talent =)

  • i love how that guy is trying to make the keyboard look badass

  • @xXWaMeGoXx Bradley Bell makes a keyboard look awesome; nigga ain't tryin'.

  • Bloody hell, the screams sound much better than the regular singing. Maybe he was tired, who knows. The performance, and song, is still awesome.

  • This is why Rock, Post hardcore etc will always be better then pop, The live performances are amazing and not lip sinked Take the black eyed peas and there super bowl performance haha :) awesome band and awesome song :)

  • I was in the audience for this <3

  • @ilovehappyjuice Ok post it six times lol, we got that u were there.

  • I was there <3

  • I was in the audience for this <3

  • not a great front man but his screams are sik

  • when he screams it sounds a little bit like underoath

  • @southparkatier mudha fuckin agree!

  • i agree tho his so boring he wont move at all.

  • idk ladada haha sounds a little lame but his voice is ok. craig is more unique.

  • craig sorry.

  • Comment removed

  • scream at 1:03 is insane!

  • Comment removed

  • I like how theres a D.R.U.G.S video in the suggestions<3chiodos but i do love my boy craig.

  • wow, who ever miced and mix those drums did a really shitty drum, it sounds like it doesnt even have mics

  • Nobody should judge Brandon by this performance. I seen them play live with Atreyu and BlessTheFall, and they out did both of them. Watch them play at a venue where there's a crowd.

  • @montejano760 that sounds like an awesome gig, BTF and chiodos.... havnt really heard atreyu much mind, saw a bit of um supporting bullet for my valentine, but thats pretty much it...

    saw BTF with ABR and seeing chiodos in may, fingers crossed...

  • ahhh i love this singer. i listened to his old band 'Yesterday's Rising' for yeeeears. SO happy to see him off doing big things now.

  • hes gotta awesome voice but he needs more stage presence i mean at least jump or something

  • at 1:58 the guitarist is thinking "holy fuck, so glad we replaced that bitch ass craig owens"

  • the sound guy sucks

  • I will admit that Brandon's singing AND screaming is pretty wicked in this video. But man. He is the most boring frontman I've ever seen as far as stage presence! It's like he's afraid is he jumps around he'll break XD.

  • this song is amazing. Sorry guys, Craig couldnt pull it off.

  • great live!
