(2002 – present)

Guitarist Ryan Morgan and bass player Kyle Johnson had no intention of slowing down after the shocking split of 7 Angels 7 Plagues during the summer of 2002. Things were finally coming together for the band, and having just decided to quit school and work, Ryan and Kyle weren’t about to switch gears any time soon. That very week they were hard at work writing songs for their new project, and later that month with the addition of Hamartia’s Jeff Aust on guitar, Jesse Zaraska of Compromise on vocals, and Ryan’s brother Branden on drums, Misery Signals was formed. Jeff Aust eventually left the band, cutting their spring 2003 tour short, they added Stu Ross on guitar and re-solidified their lineup. They are once again an insane touring machine. In January 2006 Misery Signals announced that vocalist Jesse Zaraska had parted ways with the band too.

Few bands can turn adversity on its head the way Misery Signals has. Following the departure of founding vocalist, Jesse Zaraska, the band rebounded in style by finding the perfect replacement in Karl Schubach. Schubach was part of an open audition that had hopefuls recording their vocals on an instrumental track available on their myspace page. The fact that Schubach is a guitarist by trade and has never sang in a band before makes the story even more remarkable. Commenting on the new guy, guitarist Ryan Morgan comments “Karl has a monstrous voice perfect for what people have enjoyed from the band in the past.”

"controller" is a completely flawless album. it's got heaviness, passion, melody, atmosphere, superb musicianship, great writing, good layout, and best of all; purpose. i can't describe how much i love this album. everything else they've done is amazing as well, but they really proved themselves with "controller".

Controller in itself is amazing, mirrors is well written but i agree it could be so much better with cleaner production. malice & magnum heart is one of two albums (of love and lunacy being the other) that i will NEVER get tired of listening to

Gosh I don't know, I think Of Malice might be my favorite. It kind of switches between the two Devin produced albums. It feels like a cliche saying that, but it's true.

Every MS album is a perfection itself, but EP and OMATMH will always be their best releases forever and ever after.

I wonder if Jesse Zaraska knows that Of Malice is still a masterpiece.
