I know I was being a hater back when I was discussing how they didn't deserve the AP cover, but I was wrong. This song is like close to a masterpiece, although the vocals could get a little grating. Good album too. I still think there was no need for them to be naked on the AP cover though.  |

I was actually tricked into thinking we had a female vocalist on our hands here until I realized I'd never heard of a girl named Craig. I still like the song though.

I heard a lot of good things about this band mostly on AbsolutePunk, but I after quite a few listens of this song, I'm still not incredibly impressed. I have to agree that the name is interesting though.

They took their name from the Chiodo brothers, who did a horror film in the 80's called Killer Klowns from Outer Space. (Oh wow, no way: a screamo band who loves horror movies. ) Apparently they're more known as special effects artists, though. I still don't think they deserved the AP cover back then. The song's not bad at all, but it's hard for me to take them seriously with such dumbass played-out "emo" haircuts like those. (But it's "scene kids" like these who have begun ruining tattoos from the complete opposite side of the spectrum.) |

I used to love that movie as a kid and the I watched it again in a film class in my senior year of high school and thought to myself "This is fucking cheesiest movie I've ever seen. How did I like this shit when I was younger?" |

Their last album's single was called... Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on the Creek. Even more astonishing. A screamo band with long, nonsensical song titles. |
