FLY IN THE OINTMENT

Fly in the Ointment started out as a side project in 2001 with the band drawing a line in the sand between the crumbling walls of the alternative/rock genres and injecting a healthy dose of psychedelia. FITO is a politically fueled, post punk arsenal influenced by At the Drive-In, Rise Against, and the Dillinger Escape Plan and is designed to enlighten its audience to the social and environmental issues facing the world today. Chandler demonstrates his seemingly effortless ability to maneuver between light, haunting melodies and gravelly, soul-piercing screams. FITO released the full length Gravitation, Pulleys and Puppet Strings in 2003 on Chandler's label, Living Reef Records. Their sophomore effort, Walking Backwards, is currently in production.

With the member lineup constantly changing "Fly" has had to anchor down as a side project to other ideas. It never died out and a few members made a second appearance on the new EP with the addition of Joey Mitchell on drums for 3 Songs."The False Flag," Cankersore," & "Cascade" showcase him as well as Chris James, Kevin Sledge & Brent Romine.
