Austin Carlile (Of Mice & Men)

So,today I'm just gonna put up a bio of Austin Carlile (Who I think is a pretty bad-ass musician).
Austin Robert Carlile is an American musician. He was previously the lead vocalist for the band Attack Attack! and currently lead vocalist for Of Mice & Men. He is known for his chirping high-pitched screamed vocals done in the fry scream technique. During his time living in Ohio, Carlile was a part of the local band, Call It Even before his move to Attack Attack! in 2007. He was kicked out in 2009 and started Of Mice & Men the same year, he underwent open heart surgery in 2010 and re-joined in 2011. Carlile has performed on three full-length studio albums, one EP and has been included as a featured guest for a variety of bands on numerous occasions.

Austin Carlile formed a band known as Call It Even with some of his high school friends in 2005. Mark Morbitzer (lead guitar), Frankie Walton (bass), Matt Tighe (rhythm guitar), and Connor Woodall (drums) The band only ever produced 7 songs and disbanded in 2006. One of their songs, "Superman Is Real", contains a line of lyrics that has been recycled in the Of Mice & Men's song "The Great Hendowski" from the 2011 release of Of Mice & Men's second album The Flood.

Attack Attack! (2006–2008)

Carlile joined Attack Attack! in 2006. Carlile suggested that if the band were going to start making heavier music with screamed vocals as its lead vocal work, it would be a good idea to "toughen up the name" a bit. The band was then renamed Attack Attack!, as selected by lead guitarist, Andrew Whiting. Carlile was featured in the recording of the band's debut EP, If Guns Are Outlawed, Can We Use Swords?, and their debut album, Someday Came Suddenly. On 18 November 2008, merely a week after the release of the album, Carlile announced that "[he wasn't] in Attack Attack! anymore." When asked why, he merely responded with "personal things". This post also officially announced his then-new project, Of Mice & Men. Alternative Press reported that he was fired while the band was on tour .

Of Mice & Men (2008–)

On the same day that Carlile announced that was no longer a part of Attack Attack!, he officially announced the formation of his new project, Of Mice & Men with Jaxin Hall. Their first release was "Seven Thousand Miles For What", with the Lady Gaga intro, then soon after released "No Really, It's Fine". Soon after, Austin and Jaxin started to gather up the pieces of the band. The band recruited several members of already-existing bands, such as A Static Lullaby, Covette, and Lower Definition. Their debut album was officially announced to be released on 23 February 2010 but was delayed until 9 March for finishes on production. Carlile parted ways with Of Mice & Men for not being able to tour full time with the band due to his health.
