Taste of Chaos February 25, 2007

The only worldwide lifestyle festival tour, the Rockstar Taste of Chaos, is back with another onslaught of winter shows in the United States and Canada, featuring a who's-who of young, loud, aggressive bands. Chiodos formed in high school, just outside of Flint, MI. Then known as The Chiodos Bros, they played the local scene and began writing original music. Since their initial 2002 demo, 'The Best Way To Ruin Your Life,' they've built a national following and have released several full-length albums. The Used has received a lot of attention lately and not just because lead singer Bert McCracken is Kelly Osbourne's grungy ex-boyfriend. This foursome has drawn positive attention for their resemblance to such bands as Glassjaw, The Deftones, Jimmy Eat World and Finch.
