I think Tim should just hire touring musicians for shows, and leave it at that. Hire session musicians for the albums, if he wants to continue releasing music and leave it at that. After all this drama, I wonder if any established names in the scene want to associate their names with this damaged brand, because that is what this band is, at this point.
But didn't he do exactly as that with the Unearth and Miss May I guys he brought along? Tim already labelled Ryan, Nick and Ken in that exact post of his as "touring musicians." I think the correct word would be "session musicians" cause if AILD's gonna keep on having revolving door of members every few years, I think there's no point showing them in music videos, posters and band merchs and those who'll do clean vocals for future releases should just have their names "featured" on the song title.
The way he explains it says it all. Its hos dream since he was 19. Hes thankful for people gelping HIM with HIS dream. This guy has a God complex. We are all just ants to him
When Tim was imprisoned for putting a hit on his ex-spouse and then made a public apology for it, I thought “…..ok, maybe he does actually feel remorseful” but then after learning all band members buy him exited the band in a relatively short time span and also the statements released from those former members, I thought……this is no longer coincidental. This guy is bad news; physically and mentally dangerous. It started making me question if he’s a malignant narcissist or sociopath? Tim’s verbiage in his public statement screams ‘zero personal accountability’ and a LOT of gaslighting! He danced around the addressing in detail the real problem for sake of preserving his ego and that is EXTREMELY narcissistic considering “I stand strong in the direction I want AILD to be going in” dude, it’s statements like that where no one is gonna want to work with you!
Tim’s response just BLEEDS narcissism. “I’m the real victim here”, putting the blame on everyone else, not taking any sort of accountability whatsoever. Something drastic must have happened behind the scenes to cause literally every single member to leave, not just creatively and financially (I highly doubt the finance issue, they bring in pretty decent income). The sad thing is, the new album will do numbers based on the drama and the AILD name alone, band members will continue to come and go mainly because AILD is a big name in the metalcore world and it could be a stepping stone for some, and Tim will never be held accountable for whatever happened behind the scenes. It’s incredibly disheartening to see this band go down this path considering I, like many others, grew up with their music and opened my eyes to other kinds of music.
Your explanations have been interesting to listen to man. I’ve been reading up about the situation but it’s useful when you lay it out like you do. Thanks from England 🏴🤘🤘🫡
Very similar, except Dino is lucky to have found a really good replacement singer. On top of that,, being best friends with Tony Campos and Max Cavalera doesn't hurt either. With those 2 as friends he'll always have popular bands to be in direct support of. Especially with Campos. That dude also plays bass for FF and does double duty whenever Static X and FF tour together.

I really like your content and appreciate the thorough and articulate approach. I look forward to all that you do, in the future!
Thanks so much!

I agree. It’s disheartening but not surprising, tbh.
Reminds me of all this talk about a D R E A M from 30 Seconds to Mars :)

Thanks so much man!
Chiamera has the same story and it didn't work well....Singers shouldn't get big headed...it kills the band completely
People forget he has another band Austrian death machine
As I Lay Dying is slowly becoming the next Fear Factory.
