Chiodos has had several scuffs with those in the music industry, most notably Steven Smith of Steven's Untitled Rock Show
, and Andy Williams of Every Time I Die.
On September 24, 2009 the band announced on their MySpace
page that they had "let go" of lead singer, Craig Owens.
People close to the band were apparently aware of the tension and acrimony between Owens and the other members but, in the days following this announcement, expressed both surprise at the firing, and curiosity about how Chiodos would proceed without Owens as the "face of the band." Two days after the official statement from the band Owens made his own unofficial statement to a small group of fans mentioning that he was upset, hurt and frustrated by the event and that he was not sure what he planned on doing regarding his musical career in the immediate future.
On February 1, 2010, the band announced that they were set to record their third album with acclaimed producer, Machine
, that month. "Entering the studio with Bell will be members Jason Hale (guitar), Pat McManaman (guitar), Matt Goddard (bass), and a recently added drummer, Tanner Wayne
(ex-Underminded
, ex-Scary Kids Scaring Kids
). For the time being, the band has opted to keep their frontman selection a mystery until new music is available but feel "very confident in their decision."
The band planned to keep the identity of their new vocalist a secret until their performance at Bamboozle left, but on February 2, 2010 Alternative Press reported that former Yesterdays Rising
singer Brandon Bolmer
was the new vocalist. Bolmer later revealed to AP that he was the new Chiodos vocalist and he would no longer be a part of Yesterdays Rising.
In the May issue of Alternative Press the band stated they and Derrick Frost parted ways at the time due to his and Craig Owens inability to get along. The band let Frost go over Owens, and only months later let Owens go. They also stated they had considered bringing Frost back.
On June 9, 2010 a demo featuring Owens on vocals was leaked onto the internet, named "Thermacare". The demo was recorded in September, just before Owens parted ways from the band. The band released a version of this song on their new CD "Illuminaudio" re-naming it "Stratovolcano Mouth", which features only the music portion of "Thermacare". Owens' band, D.R.U.G.S. released their version on their self-titled debut album. It features Owens's lyrics with new music, and is renamed "The Only Thing You Talk About"
On August 3, 2010, Alternative Press posted on their website that Chiodos' new album would be titled Illuminaudio
, and would be released on October 5. This was confirmed on August 9, 2010, in a press release from their label, Equal Vision
. On January 21, 2011, the Australian version of "Illuminaudio" CD was released with a bonus track, "New Thought Movement". In 2011 Chiodos toured with Skindred
to promote the Welsh ragga metallers' new album, Union Black
. This was followed by four American dates with The Color Morale
, Close to Home
and The Air I Breathe and the "Scream It Like You Mean It" tour 2011, a 39 date American tour which saw the band play directly underneath Breathe Carolina
, with I See Stars
, The Color Morale, MOD SUN and The Air I Breathe also on the bill. The band were due to return to Europe later in 2011 as direct support to Madina Lake
on their European tour but for reasons unknown are no longer on the bill. It is unclear whether the band intends to return to Europe in another way or if any touring remains to be done for Illuminaudio. There are currently no further dates on the band's website.
In 2006, Chiodos' videos for "One Day Women Will All Become Monsters" and "Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on the Creek" were released. The "Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on the Creek" video was included on the 2006 re-issue of All's Well That Ends Well, which added a DVD and three acoustic tracks to the 2005 release.
A video for "Lexington (Joey Pea-Pot with a Monkey Face)" was made which premiered world wide on April 2, 2008 on the social network MySpace. This was the first single of their second album, Bone Palace Ballet. Derrick Frost has stated in an interview that the band was disappointed in the final result of the music video, saying
