“Life is like a movie, if you've sat through more than half of it and its sucked every second so far, it probably isn't gonna get great right at the end and make it all worthwhile. None should blame you for walking out early.”

- Doug Stanhope

Amran, that's massively insensitive. I sincerely hope no-one close to you takes their own life. Will you still have the same point of view? Wanker.

The Voice of Reason? Sure you are...

Your quote isn't exactly relevant to the situation. I can't consider a member of quite sucessful band to have a life which has "sucked". He is living a life most of us consider a dream.

Suicide is a selfish act where you cause more pain to more people if you are successful.

Posted by Andy | July 23, 2008 5:21 PM | Reply to this

what if those people were the cause of your pain?

Posted by lizzie | July 23, 2008 6:12 PM | Reply to this

Yes, but what you said isnt relevant either. If he was in the most successful band ever, its still irrelevant.
He has a mental health problem, and so therefore he wouldn't think of the reality of his success, just the pain he is obviously going through.
Hope he gets better.

Being in a successful band is a job aswell, and one that's not as easy as you probably think.

If YOU won a billion pounds.. After a while you would get used to it, and you want want more, it wouldnt be a dream anymore. It becomes normal.

So what you said is not really relevant either.

Being successful and famous doesn;t neccesarily make your life perfect, it doesn't cancel out all the problems you may unfortunately have

I really hope he gets better and finds something to live for, it'd be tragic if he died....

It's totally relevant.

On the surface you can seem to have it all - the perfect life, even - but none of us know the problems we each go through privately. Owens must be in a lot of pain to even contemplate committing suicide. Kurt Cobain was in one of the world's most successful bands but his fame and fortune and success only caused him more despair.

I don't see what being successful or not has to do with the repercussions of suicide. It's sad either way for everyone concerned.

Everyone whos slagging him off for trying to commit suicide, are massively insensitive.
I do hope you go through the pain he may be going through, might help you know what its like.
:)

And those who are saying chiodos are shit, i appreciate your opinion, but keep it to yourself.
If theres ever a 'Who Thinks Chiodos are shit'' forum, or maybe a story about them being a load of shit, I'll let you know.

They were amazing at Give It A Name.
I hope he gets better.

God. I never knew people could be so insensitive to things like this...my best friend just tried to kill himself, so this really resonates with me. Corey had it hard, but he was so happy, I never even expected it.

Depression is a disease, it has nothing to do with wether your famous or successful or w/e. My Dad has depression, but he was able to see that before things got too much. Two of his best friends killed themself in the space of a year, so he knows how to recognise the signs.

Craig.

Firstly, to all you cretins who are posting ridiculously insensitive comments when you would clearly do a better job of tickling your pea-sized testicles, fuck right off. If you, or knew anyone who had these kind of problems, maybe you'd understand, but as you obviously have no friends due to your crazy bollock juggling habits you wouldn't.

Craig has incredible vocal ability and for him to attempt something like this again is quite disheartening. He has many fans an many friends and needs all the support we can give. If you useless shower of bastards haven't heard of Chiodos, then I seriously suggest you give them a listen.

Rant over.
Don't do this again please Craig.

That's just it. Courtney says the ashes where stolen.

She probably got trashed one night and hoovered him up. Rather than admit to Francis that she'd snorted her Daddy through a $100 bill off the bog she made some theft story up.

Fucking Discusting

I think this is discracful (the fact this is news not the fact that he did it), appologies for my spelling.

I am sorry for the fact he did this. I understand suicide completly.

This shouldnt be news though - innerpartysystem said this in their new song...Suicide is being broadcast like this, a form of entertainment (Entertainment dosnt mean something exciting or happy, it means something to entertain the mind or boredom). It should not be here - he deserves his fucking privacy!

K! Fuck off. DO NOT BROADCAST SUICIDE ATTEMPTS!

You know what andymark and all you other haters...you have no idea who the guy is neither do you know what the guy has been through..unless you know who chiodos are then you might as well fuck off this page because your opinion is worthless..
I adore chiodos they are one of my favourite bands and I have met Craig on more than one occasion and he really is a great guy as are the other guys in the band...
The songs that chiodos play are deep beyond many peoples mindsets,Im sorry if this type of music doesnt appeal to you who listen to your little poppy "rock" shite that should never EVER exist but there we go...
And those of you who think its so easy to commit suicide,you are just insensitive cunts who have no idea what they are talking about...

Long live Chiodos, and long live Craig...remember:

what the fuck? my best friend, who also happens to be my sister's girlfriend, just tried to kill himself, two of my dads best friends have killed themself in the last year, i would NEVER try to wish death on anyone! suicide has affected me more than most people, why would i want to put someone else through the same pain i or my friends have been through?!

i believe my quote was:

you're a fucking sick man, you know that? i hope someone close to you never tries to do something like this, because nobody deserves to go through pain like that.

Just a couple of things. First I've never heard of this band, but suicide attempts are not a way of attention seeking, and I hope the guy gets himself straight soon. Secondly, how the FUCK can this retard Andymark say these things to upset people and not think "shit, I've taken this too far"? You probably think you're great upsetting a 14 year old girl who's friend is in hospital, don't you? I'm a 26 year old man. Try and upset me motherfucker!!! I wish I could kick your ass for all these comments!! Every message board you're on you insult people you pathetic little man. Did something happen to you when you were a child? Because your seriously fucking disturbed now!! I hope you can learn respect for people man, cause one day it'll bite you in the arse! To everybody else, keep it metal guys!! Horns up!!

Tool band. Tool band members. Tool music. In good 'ol Lamb Goat Fashion...I hope this band's van flips over while they're on tour, all their equipment gets smashed, and they either all die, or stop making music.

Good.

WOW, you're an insensitive prick.

The fact you can call a singer "horrible" (suggesting he has done something to offend you or others) and then go on to take a personal stab at the other members of the band as being "homo(s)" shows how hypocritical and immature you are. The fact you dislike the band does not warrant you pretending to know him well (the last 3 comments are all clearly by the same person (I'm assuming)) and saying such horrible words about him. Never, ever, wish death on anybody. He has a family, friends and an army of fans who you obviously have no concern for- how would you feel if somebody close to you died. And actually think about it, losing someone influential in your life is the most horrible thing that can ever happen to you. But then again, i guess I'm wrong, you're obviously hard cause you know the names of 2 vaguely death metal bands.

Anyway, more on topic - I can understand anybody commiting suicide; for any number of reasons that nobody else can even guess how they feel. However, I hope that he realises he has enough to live for to stay with it, and isn't overcome by the embaressment and despair of everybody else in the world knowing that it happened.

I love kerrang! I've just subscribed to the magazine, but this story is potentially damaging to his recovery and shouldn't be broadcast to the whole world.

I'm no Chiodos fan but I feel that nobody should say anything about Craig as they can never understand fully.

Posted by Matt | July 25, 2008 9:00 PM | Reply to this

ironic

Part of the reason he tried to commit suicide other than the fact that he suffers depression and anxiety problems, was because of sad little people who post horrible messages and comments about him. He is a sensitive person, and if you looked on the internet and was bombarded with hateful comments, you wouldnt exactly enjoy it.
there is no reason to hate on this band or craig because he has an unusual voice, or any other reason. you do not know him. He didn't ask for this news to be broadcast around on kerrang either. . I hope he realises he shouldnt listen to stupid wanks like you. People that post negative comments about someone's attempted suicide and also wishes them to die are the disgrace of the human race.

I'm not talking shit about his unusual voice or anything at all, I'm a guy and I can sing in a high falsetto kinda like pierce the veil and shit but seriously.

If Chiodos has inspired anyone, they're the ones who need to be making suicide attempts.

Id you want real music with real meaning, listen to Trash Talk, Ceremony, or VERSE. All your bullshit music needs to be stomped.

twat.

how retarded do you have to be to write everything in cap locks?

As a korn fan, you should know how serious depression/ suicide is considering Jonathan Davis has even said he wouldn't wish it on his worse enemy.

Failed suicide doesn't make you a retard in anyway. How do you know that he hasn't took a large amount of pills, quickly found, rushed to hospital and quickly treated therefore if he is unconscious and unwilling to stop the treatment. think before you write and i wish him all the best, DESPITE, not being a fan.

Crybabies?

i'm sick of people saying that people who attempt or commit suicide are 'crybabies'. Until YOU have been in the position to know how it feels to hate your life so much you want to end it, and feel the pain of being suicidal, you can't pass judgement. Imagine how dark of a place you have to be in to actually attempt to commit suicide. Some of you need to grow up!

fag emo rocker fakes i mean attempts suicide

come on people .if you buy into this attempted suicide crap then your just as ignorant as the retard that supposedly attempted it .its obvious that this was just a publicity stunt .thats what you emmo/goth fags are into right .the pussy fucker did this for attention just like most people that attempt suicide .if the crybaby fag really had balls he would have succeeded instead of supposedly attempted it and it wouldnt be in this magazine unless he just wanted attention. the majority of the people that do this are just starving for attention .this type of attention makes you look like a pussy ass crybaby bitch .suicide is considered a sin for a reason .if your so depressed with your life your the only person who can do anything about and nothing is more depressing than being a rich rock musician hahaha just joking. any way suicide isnt the answer your better off alive than dead dont be a coward

I'm not a Chiodos fan but I truly hope Craig Owens gets the help he needs and gets his life back on track. All you people slagging him off need to take a reality check 'cos different people react to pain,struggle and life in general in different ways some are more mentally tough than others as is with physical strength and all other aspects of life and also just for the record I seriously doubt that it is a publicity stunt and also fame is probably a lot more difficult than you or I realise because no matter how much money you have it doesn't buy you happiness and all the attention may seem good at first but then the hounding that you receive and the bad press which often outweighs the good makes you wonder whether it was all really worth it just look at Britney Spears she was fucked in the head you know why FAME same with Amy Winehouse,Kurt Cobain,Pete Doherty fame can be if not able to neccessarily cope with being the centre of attentuion all the time the biggest killer of the lot.

I have a brother who committed suicide and to say that suicide is wrong is completely heartbreaking for me.

Amran I hope you rot in hell.

TRY IT AGAIN!!!!

Posted by GOD | July 28, 2008 7:13 PM | Reply to this

wrong....

ok when someone is in a time of trouble and tries something as serious as suicide you people should not try and make them feel worse about themselves...
and if you actually took the time to read the interviews with craig you will notice that its rude people like you that cause him to be so unstable because he only tries to please everyone.
and think about it....how many rockstars care what people think of them?? not many....so before passing judgement on someone maybe you should stop and think instead of being complete and total ass holes....
im so tired of people like the ones on this thread that post immature comments, because people like you are the reason no one likes this generation....and frankly i don't want to be considered a part of this generation because of the sheer fact that over half the people in it are rude and inconsiderate ass holes.
i would rant more but i am guessing that this will not get through your thick skulls to actually mean anything since you are self centered.

ps. i hope you feel better soon craig...my dad suffers from manic depressive bipolar disorder and its not a fun thing to have and can be troubling to the people surrounding you...as long as you have friends that support you, thats all that should matter.

GET BETTER SOON!!

Oh god

That's awful, although im glad hes getting help. Iguess there's no chance of a UK tour this year then....

Some of you lot should seriously think about what your typing..."only cry babies commit suicide" that's horrible. Suicide is serious, Craig needs help and now he's getting it. Enough said.

Get some sense in your heads

Okay, I like Chiodos. I got something to say to both sides here. To the dipshit that said killing yourself is for crybabies, you, go kill yourself please. You understand what depression is right? You know, that thing where people get sad, and you know, do shit that most people wouldn't do if they were happy? To the people saying "shat ap faggets u cud neva understand da pain hes in", go crawl in a hole and never come out. The fact that you have a computer to post on this website and have the money to buy a Chiodos CD means your life isn't as fucked up as you believe it is. NOW, IF WE'RE GOING TO TALK WE'RE GOING TO TALK LIKE WE'VE BEEN EDUMACATED. KAY?
