I've heard they have some issue with Four Year Strong over a placement in a tour line up they were both on.

It wouldn't surprise me that some of it was staged. I'm usually ok with members leaving bands because they tend to make another band that is somewhat similar which then gives me two bands to listen to instead of one. Being a music nerd I can understand it being interesting.

[EchoPark]

OMAM and The Bouncing Souls on the same label. one wonders

[AP_Punk]

Rise should sign Guttermouth. They could take this to a whole new level.

[Djentleman]

i love band drama.....except when the bands are on Rise records
Rise is just ex/former/new band members fighting about nothing important
band fights like Finch & Disturbed or Emmure & The Acacia Strain actually have a point n some form of interest

If you don't like it then that's fine but I find it completely ignorant that someone could possibly find those two songs to sound the same. That new AA! song is pure butt rock and sounds nothing like the OM&M track. That's like saying Prince and Drake sound the same.

lol

[Jake Jenkins]

just compared shit metalcore to prince and drake

Dude, that's what their entire demographic is.

I can see how you're skeptical, but Landon Tewers (The Plot in You) is just an angry motherfucker who will say anything to cause a stir. He probably has reasons for his beef with Austin, but he won't announce them publicly, and he only told fans the song was about Austin after they pestered him constantly. People were guessing that every song TPIY released was about Austin, so Landon set the record straight.

So, yeah.

Other than that, I can see where you're coming from.

I'm starting to think that most of this is fake in the same vein as publicity beef in rap music. If nothing else I believe that the label encourages bands and members to squabble with each other, and I wouldn't at all be surprised if it was mostly total fiction invented by the label, and the bands are just putting on a show. I'd bet money that Beartooth (Caleb Shomo's new band following Attack Attack!) will sign to Rise and start raking in even more money, while Attack Attack! continues to be popular. They split up their bands behind the scenes, the fans latch on to the tabloid-esque stories, and the label immediately has another band that's equally as successful and profitable.

Does this sound like a dumb conspiracy theory or could all the diva-style fighting that goes on with these metalcore bands really be faked by the label?

1. you are right in the fact it may be fake.. but its NOT for money, its for laughs..

2.who cares

He compared the COMPARISON of Prince and Drake to the COMPARISON between the Of Mice & Men and Attack Attack! songs, not the artists themselves.

[UphillBothWays]

No way did Landon "fake" his feelings towards Austin, he has been vocal against him for a while. I'll go back to listening to the new TPIY album now.
