Escape The Fate

Dupa cum stiti Craig este noul solist al acestei trupe. :w00t:

Escape The Fate's early success on local radio quickly massed a devoted fan base. In October 2005, they won a local radio contest judged by My Chemical Romance, who awarded the band an opportunity to open for its headlining tour with Alkaline Trio and Reggie and the Full Effect.

The band signed to Epitaph Records. Their debut five-song EP, There's No Sympathy for the Dead, was released in early 2006. Tour dates through the summer followed, including several dates on the Warped Tour, and the band subsequently dropped off a tour with Bullet for My Valentine and Eighteen Visions due to personal problems. Singer Ronnie Radke was dropped from the band after pleading guilty to assisting in a murder[1] weeks before the release of their first full album, Dying Is Your Latest Fashion, which was released on September 26, 2006. The album peaked at #12 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and #19 on the Top Independent Albums chart.[2]

On November 6, 2006, the band posted on their MySpace blog stating that Radke was back in the band. Radke also posted on his own MySpace explaining his absence and describing his new love for life.

Omar Espinosa left the band during the Negru On Black tour in late 2007. He stated in his MySpace blog that he left the band for good, but that his leaving was on good terms, and he is still friends with the members of Escape the Fate. He said that he will continue to support the members no matter what, and he still believes it is a great band.
The band was scheduled to co-headline the 2008 Take Action Tour, but were not able to play for reasons unknown and were replaced by From First to Last. These reasons were later revealed as Ronnie's drug dependency and several other problems. Radke was wanted for parole violation in his hometown of Las Vegas as of June 12, 2008, and was caught June 16, 2008.[3] Radke was officially dismissed from the band in early 2008. The members later decided to kick Radke out in order to keep Escape The Fate going. Craig Mabbitt from Blessthefall has replaced Radke as frontman and lead singer of the band.[4]

On August 4, 2008 Radke was sentenced to four years in jail.[5] While in jail, Radke posted four MySpace blogs. The first was addressed to his fans and admirers thanking them for the support and stating that he is ready to work on his "next album". It is unknown whether or not this was a reference to a new Escape the Fate album. The other three blogs had a negative tone and were addressed to the victim's family, Craig Mabbitt, and former band-mate Max Green. In the blog to the family, Radke expressed that he was sorry for what happened but was wrongfully put in jail as a witness to the crime. In the blog to Craig Mabbitt, Radke accused Mabbitt of stealing his ex-girlfriend and trying to be just like him (Radke)[citation needed]. In the blog to Max Green, he states that, "You are the one that deserves to be in this position. YOU are the real culprit," and that Green's "Time is coming. Trust me, you're going to get what you deserve!"[6] Green posted a blog of his own in reaction to Radke's blog stating that Radke was immature and he got what he deserved.[7]

On May 6, 2008, Escape the Fate announced that Craig Mabbitt has officially joined the band for the recording of This War Is Ours, and that the album will be produced by John Feldmann (Lostprophets, The Used, Story of the Year, Atreyu) and is expected to be released in October 21, 2008.[8] In the same press release, Mabbitt discussed his feelings about joining the band:

"I'm excited to have the opportunity to continue making music with a group of amazing people, I'm loving what's coming out of us in the studio right now and things couldn't be going better. Escape the Fate is taking over the world, so buckle your seatbelts 'cause we're here to stay."

Escape the Fate has recently announced an Australian/New Zealand tour with Anime Fire, From The Hearts Of Heroes, We Are The Emergency and False Start. The band will be supporting Chiodos on their US headlining tour along with Silverstein, Alesana and A Skylit Drive starting in October 2008.
