Biography

Louisville, Kentucky, United States (1995 – 2004, 2006 – present)

Flaw is a rock band which formed in Louisville, Kentucky, United States in 1995.

The band formed when vocalist Chris Volz answered an ad in a local paper placed by guitarist Jason Daunt, looking for a singer for an alternative/industrial band. The band’s rhythm section progressed through several line-ups but solidified with the addition of bassist Ryan Jurhs in 1996. That same year the band recorded their first independent record American Arrogance.

Because they were low on money, the band ordered everything they needed to record from the Musician’s Friend catalog, then returned it using the 30-day return policy. Their album gave them the opportunity to open for acts including Fear Factory and Econoline Crush. A local radio station, The Fox, broadcast the songs from Flaw’s indie disc, giving them further notoriety.

Two more independent records, 1998’s self titled album Flaw and 2000’s Drama were later produced.

Flaw signed to Universal/Republic Records in 2000, and proceeded to release their debut album, Through the Eyes in 2001. The album eventually topped the Billboard Heatseekers Chart, due to moderate rotation of their music videos “Payback” and “Whole” on MTV2 and rock radio stations. In 2002, the band played at Ozzfest.

In 2004, after three years without releasing a new album, Flaw returned to the studio to begin recording their second studio album, Endangered Species. The band had parted ways with guitarist Jason Daunt and drummer Chris Ballinger and added Micah Havertape as their new drummer.

    2001 и 2004 прекрасные альбомы, даже боюсь слушать остальные, ведь о них так плохо отзываются.

    I can't believe they're still around. [2] Same. First heard them on an OPM demo disc which had the music vids for 'Payback' by Flaw, and 'Solitaire Unraveling' by Mushroomhead way back in April 2002...Good times...
