The core members of Flaw formed together in January of 2000. After getting attention and going #1 on garageband.com with their debut E.P. (Drama), which brought the band major label interest, the band went on to CBGB’S in Oct of the same year and showcased for several major labels. Avery Lipman with Republic / Universal invited the band to the record label the very next day and offered Flaw a major record deal, in which the band signed live on the radio the following month.

In April 2001 Flaw went off to record their first major label debut at Sound City Studios in Van Nuys, California with world renowned producer David Bottrill (Tool, Mudvayne). After the band mixed the tracks at North Larabee Studio in Hollywood, Flaw embarked on several major tours including Mudvayne, Cold, Sevendust, Kitty, Coal Chamber, Ozzfest 2002, a European tour, two headlining tours, and a series of festivals and radio shows. The band then grabbed the number one spot on the Billboards Heat Seeker charts.

Flaw was selling 11,000 records a week with around 350,000 total U.S. sales and 87,000 European sales within the first year. With great honor Flaw was featured on the cover of “The Album Network” magazine November issue. In April 2004 Flaw released their second album Endangered Species with David Bottrill at the helm once again. “Endangered Species” went on to sell 27,562 copies in the first week, but the total sales of 155,000 did not meet the labels expectations and Flaw was dropped.

For me "Homegrown Studio Sessions" is a good album. I like the song "Concealed" - yeah,that's cool!

Like Zach216 has already said the "Homegrown Studio Sessions" should be rerecorded=), but the album itself is good! "Walls" rulez=)

Let's be honest this isn't like a REAL record... if they get a deal and redo this record it in 2010 it will be.

the new album feels flat, energyless and drained on the whole. "concealed" is decent, blending some fun tritone action with a sturdy vocal melody. "voices" was better as the old myspace demo, now it feels slightly overproduced and the new solo tone sucks badly (sounds like a random guitar noob noodling). the rest is painfully mediocre at best, muzak at worst. not a triumphant return, more like a indecipherable murmur from beyond the grave.

I like their older albums MUCH more. The songs on their new album feel monophonic.

It sounds nothing like the solo record... I actually liked that more, the guys would probably slay me for that opinion but I really do think it's better.

On first listen, it really feels like they've lost their bite. Hopefully these are just demos.

It needs to be rerecorded and the songs should be tweaked a bit. Hopefully they will after this tour is over and they have some money in the pockets...

This band was so fantastic... Awesome lyrics and vocals in particular. FBM just isn't the same to my ears. (Yes I know it's the same vocalist.)
