History
Aiden's first full-length album Our Gang's Dark Oath was released on Dead Teenager Records in 2004. It was recorded while Jake Davison and Angel Ibarra were still in high school, being released shortly after they had left.
Later in 2005, the band was signed to Victory Records. Their second album and debut for Victory Records titled Nightmare Anatomy was released October 4, 2005.
On October 31st, 2006, Aiden released an EP/DVD titled Rain in Hell. While the CD didn't receive rave reviews, the acoustic track "Silent Eyes" and the opening track "A Candlelight Intro" hinted towards a broadening of Aiden's musical style. The DVD included 3 music videos and a live performance of Aiden's Never Sleep Again Tour in Chicago. During October and November 2006, Aiden played the "Never Shave Again Tour" with Silverstein and It Dies Today. They did a cover of Billy Idol's Classic song "White Wedding", showing their roots in 80's music.
In 2006, they contributed a remix of "The Last Sunrise" for the soundtrack to Underworld: Evolution and had their song "Die Romantic" featured on the EA Sports' game NCAA MVP Baseball 2006. The band has achieved a cult following amongst Kerrang! readers, which also helped them become part of the 2006 Kerrang Awards in August, taking home the award of "Best International Newcomer" as well as being part of the Kerrang XXV tour in January 2006. In May and June of that year Aiden toured with the Finnish band HIM. They also played the 2006 Warped Tour that summer.
Aiden contributed a cover of Nirvana's "Drain You" to Higher Voltage, a CD given away free with Kerrang! magazine.
In April 2007, Aiden played an arena tour of the UK supporting Lostprophets with Taking Back Sunday. They also played the 2007 Taste Of Chaos North American Tour alongside The Used, 30 Seconds to Mars, Senses Fail, Saosin, Chiodos, and Evaline. They recently played a West Coast tour, followed by a national tour, Confessions in the Dark Tour, with Drop Dead, Gorgeous, Still Remains, and 1997. They recently completed the International Taste of Chaos tour. Aidens song 'One Love' appears in Resident Evil Extinction, and their song 'We Sleep Forever' is featured in the motion picture Dead Silence
The band's third studio album entitled Conviction was released August 21, 2007. It marks a complete change of style in the band's musical direction. On the 9th October 2007, through a MySpace bulletin the band announced that they were filming their next music video, for the song "Moment", so confirming it as the next single
The band played a show in Anchorage, Alaska in January 2008, introducing their U.S. tour with Madina Lake in February and March, 2008. This was the first part of their three-part "World by Storm Tour", the second part of which was a month-long Europe tour from late March to late April 2008. The third part, a tour from Massachusetts back to their home base in Seattle, was to occupy much of May 2008, but the band pulled out of the tour after two shows, according to their web site for "personal reasons".
They also played The Bamboozle festival in East Rutherford, New Jersey in May 2008. In addition, Aiden recorded their own version of Ashley Massaro's theme music 'Lets Light a Fire Tonight' for the bonus edition of WWE The Music, Vol. 8.
