      @@MK-wx5vu not disputing that, where I’m coming from is mainly the direction in the sound they’ve gone in was laid out by Eric when he joined. Before Eric they were a deathcore band completely different sound. Not saying it would’ve been for forever but the stunts pulled on the management side was strange. I like his current band BackWordz though

      After the EP they kicked Eric out and brought in 2 new guys, one of which was AJ, but the other guy left after they released their single "Pretenders". Now its just AJ.
      Eric went and formed Backwordz soon after he got kicked. From what I heard the 2 bands have made up since the booting but people still argue over which band is better
