History
[edit]Early career (2001–2005)
[edit]On November 22, 2005 Hellogoodbye released a DVD titled OMG HGB DVD ROTFL. It featured two hours of concert and touring footage, as well as music videos to the five songs off their debut EP. Following the release, the group was featured on the third and fourth installments of the Drive-Thru Records DVD series. In December 2005, the band won MTV2's Dew Circuit Breakout competition.[2]
Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs! (2006–2008)
[edit]In the January 2007 issue of Alternative Press, the group confirmed their new album would be released 2008. In January 2007, the single "Here (In Your Arms)" saw a resurgence on Top 40 radio and entered the Billboard Hot 100 (peaking at No. 14) and the Pop 100 (peaking at No. 9).[3]
In September 2008, it was announced that keyboardist Jesse Kurvink would be leaving the band to finish college. Replacing him would be Joe Marro, former guitarist/keyboardist of The Early November. In addition to the lineup changes, the band has announced a fall tour throughout the United States. Accompanying them on the tour are Never Shout Never, Say No More, Ace Enders, and PlayRadioPlay!.[4]
Would It Kill You? (2009–2012)
[edit]On various websites during 2009 and 2010, including their own, Hellogoodbye stated they were working on a new record.[5][6] The name of the album was revealed to be Would It Kill You?. The band paired up to tour with Hanson, starting on September 30 in Tulsa followed by dates in October and early November on what was called the Use Your Sole Tour.[7] Other bands which partook in the tour were Steel Train and Sherwood.
On the Vans Warped Tour 2011, Hellogoodbye was filmed by Chris Skiles and interviewed by Juliet Simms. Forrest spoke about being a vegan on tour for Buzznet's Incredibly Green on the Go segment.[8]
On January 25, 2012, it was announced that Joe Marro was leaving the band. He cited his recent marriage and touring pressures as the reason for the split. He was replaced by Augie Rampolla (ex-You, Me, and Everyone We Know guitarist).[9]
In 2012, it was announced that Hellogoodbye, after touring, would be recording their third LP. In July and August, the group went on a tour of the US with Relient K, William Beckett and House of Heroes.[10]
Everything Is Debatable and S'Only Natural (2013–present)
[edit]In August 2013, Hellogoodbye stated they would release their third studio album Everything Is Debatable. The album was released on October 29, 2013.[11] In October 2013, Hellogoodbye was the opening act for Paramore's The Self-Titled Tour with Metric.[12]
On January 13, 2015, the band released the single "I Wanna See the States" for a promotion for PBS Learning Media's geography lessons. In January 2017, Forrest Kline teased that a new track would be released on behalf of a charity donated to the ACLU, and revealed the title hours later as "Stare into the Black", before posting it on the band's online store for sale.[13] Forrest posted the song to the band's YouTube account shortly after, and confirmed a new album was in the works on Hellogoodbye's Facebook account, stating "[Stare Into The Black] was intended for it... and will likely still be included."[14]
On August 2, 2017, the band announced the "Would Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs! Kill You?" Tour, a six date tour during which they played the first two albums in whole, as well as select other songs.[15][16]
On July 22, 2018, Hellogoodbye announced via their official Facebook page that their new album S'Only Natural will be released on October 5, 2018.[17]
In late 2021, Hellogoodbye embarked on a US and UK tour celebrating the 10-year anniversary of their second LP, Would It Kill You? They played the album in its entirety along with additional hits from their catalog.[18]
