In fact they developed such a reputation that they had several bites from other record labels one of those being Relapse Records, through which the band signed a multi-record recording contract. Their show was emblematic of their music: unpredictable and attention grabbing.

The group toured to promote their new EP and immediately gained a strong cult following with their ramped up performances, which often climaxed into violent outbursts. The name stuck and the band continued recording and performing live under their new alter ego. The label eventually went on to issue the mastered version of these tracks on their self-titled EP. The members recorded their first demo under the name Dillinger Escape Plan and with it attracted offers from Now or Never Records. The group is based out of Morris Plains, New Jersey, United States and in addition to Weinman originally consisted of vocalist Dimitri Minakakis and drummer Chris Pennie. Better Lovers is signed to SharpTone Records.The Dillinger Escape Plan formed in 1997 from the remains of lead guitarist Ben Weinman’s previous punk band, Arcane. Better Lovers! It appears as though news on more new music from Better Lovers is only imminent, as well, but for now, '30 Under 13' is now avialble on streaming services. A press release yesterday ended explaining, 'tour dates are imminent' and mere hours later, Underoath & The Ghost Inside announced their co-headlining Summer Tour '23 with openers We Came As Romans and, you guessed it. It appears as though Williams other career as The Butcher from AEW wrestling tag team duo The Butcher & The Blade with Jesse 'The Blade' Guilmette is now taking priority over his music career. Putney, who had worked on the most recent Every Time I Die albums and won a 2021 GRAMMY Award for his production work on Body Count's Carnivore, encapsulates the band's thoughts: 'it's a group of loaded weapons all firing at full-power ready for the next chapter of our music careers and I can confidently say our collective best work is ahead of us.' As you will notice, Better Lovers features Putney, rather than Andy 'The Butcher' Williams, who seemed to have been part of this project or another following the demise of ETID. Underoath & The Ghost Inside's Summer Tour '23 flyer (SOURCE: Facebook) Collectively, Better Lovers members count themselevs as both current and former members of Every Time I Die, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Fear Before The March of Flames, Norma Jean, Soul Patch, Kid Gorgeous, Error, Killer Be Killed, Spylacopa, The Black Queen, Bayonet, END, and Fit for An Autopsy. The blistering, four-minute track and accompanying Eric Richter directed video serve as the perfect introduction to Better Lovers, a band whose music is as uncompromising, unapologetic, and undeniable as anything they've done individually. Just yesterday, we got news of the sheer existence of one of those new post-ETID projects.īetter Lovers, a newly-formed band featuring vocalist Greg Puciato, guitarists Jordan Buckley & Will Putney, drummer Clayton 'Goose' Holyoak, and bassist Stephen 'Steve' Micciche, have released their debut single, '30 Under 13,' via SharpTone Records. It seemed to be a messy legal dispute and an unfortunate demise for one of the sub-genres' greatest bands. Buckley, Williams, Micciche & Holyoak appeared to all be working on a new project together (with a then-unannounced new singer) and Keith Buckley seemed to be cooking up something of his own. As you may recall, early 2022 ushered in the break-up of Buffalo, New York Metalcore/Hardcore Punk behemoth Every Time I Die (ETID.) In the media and across their various personal and band social media accounts, ETID's Jordan Buckley, Andy Williams, Stephen Micciche & Clayton Holyoak were seemingly pitted against one-time ETID frontman and Jordan's own brother, Keith Buckley.
