Attack Attack! vocalist leaves band

Alternative Press - Tim Karan on 10/20/09 @ 3:35 PM - altpress.com

Just days before embarking on their headlining tour, Attack Attack! vocalist Nick Barham announced that he's left the band. This isn't the first time that Attack Attack! have had bad timing with vocalist personnel changes. Barham replaced vocalist Austin Carlile in 2008 after the group fired him during the middle of a tour with Maylene And The Sons Of Disaster.

Barham released this statement: "I just wanted to let everyone know what's going on with me right now. Last week i was talking to all the dudes in attack attack and decided that I was going to quit the band. There's no beef between us. It was just time for change. But for right now I'm going to be going out with my brothers band Sleeping with Sirens just to keep busy. So make sure you check them out and try to come say hi. I will be starting something new soon! So keep an eye out for it. Love you guys!"

wow you guys ^ are horrible, what gives you the right to talk about them like this?

all these nu-screamo bands just do nothing for me. they all sound the same. i thought it was cool when underoath did it on define the great line, but other than that i think its played out and bogus. all just my opinion

WTF! I don't know how good this Barham fellow is, but seriously? Man, this sucks. (and fuck the haters)

this is really a shame. if any of you had even been to one of their shows, and i hope you had because they are really great live, you would know that nick is a really cool guy. after all their shows you could find nick just hanging out with all the fans. hell, he even remember who i was after i saw him in february.

i died see them live and it was cool i got to hang with all of attack attack and i do like nick as a person but as the person to take the place of austin carlisle he isnt the right person at all so im kinda glad that he left.

Attack Plans: Regarding Member Change Why hello boys and girls! Thought we'd throw you all a quick little update about what's currently going on in the AA! lineup. The band and Nick parted ways recently in a mutually agreed non-explosive fashion, which we all believe is the best for both sides. Caleb is going to retire his keys and start screaming in the front of the band. We DO NOT have a new person in our band. Don't worry, our music will still be full of Caleb's programming, keys, and all the good things he concocts. It will just be back-tracked live with the 808 samples and other nonsense on my iPod. Anyways, we're not gonna stop touring, playing shows, and having a great time
