Brisbane, Australia (1999 – present)
The Butterfly Effect was a hard rock band from Brisbane, Australia, formed in 1999. Since February 2002 the band has toured Australia and Europe extensively, and have performed over 800 times both locally and overseas as a headlining act. The band have performed at all major rock festivals in Australia including Big Day Out, Homebake, Livid and Falls Festival.
Their first EP, The Butterfly Effect (EP), was released in 2001, and charted well on the ARIA Independent charts. This first release, featuring the Triple J single “take me away”, was more “nu-metal” than later recordings although contained much of what was to become their signature soundscapes. They followed this with the critically-acclaimed Begins Here, released on 3 August 2003. The album peaked at No. 23 in Australia, reaching gold sales accreditation by mid-2006. It produced the minor hitAlways, and attracted considerable critical acclaim
On 17 June 2006, the album Imago was released, with a move towards progressive rock and a less heavy sound. It was produced in Los Angeles by Joe Barresi, who had just produced Tool’s “10,000 Days” album. The album was commercially successful, being featured on national radio station Triple J, peaking at No. 2 in Australia in its first week and attaining gold sales accreditation just nine weeks later. The singleA Slow Descent also peaked at No. 9 on the singles charts.

Very sad day :(. I agree with Ninty, the other band members should use a new band name and think of it as a new project. It just isn't TBE without Clint. Really don't want to see them emulate INXS post-Hutchence. Thanks for the music and the memories, lads.

Well it's finally official that Clint Boge is leaving TBE. It has been a while coming, but I thought they would definitely get a new album out first. Shit day. At least they're doing one last tour. :( /// I hope the others don't continue with the band name and do another project instead. No Clint = no TBE.
