Matt Good

After being kicked out of Chiodos in late 2009, Craig Owens had started saying that he was putting a new band together, which was unnamed at the time. Owens later revealed the name of the new band was D.R.U.G.S., which is an acronym for Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows. Owens started to reveal band members one by one through video blogs. By the time the last member was announced, the band consisted of Craig Owens as the lead vocalist, Matt Good as a guitarist and vocalist, Nick Martin also as a guitarist and vocalist, Adam Russell as bassist and Aaron Stern as the drummer. The band entered the recording studio on August 25, 2010, and finished recording the album on October 21 of the same year. The band then went on their first headlining tour Rise from the Ashes Tour, supported by Eyes Set To Kill and New Medicine, taking place between December 4–19, 2010. The band announced that the album would be titled D.R.U.G.S. with a release date of February 22, 2011.

In November 2013, it was announced that FFTL would be reuniting. The lineup would consist of Good, Travis Richter, Derek Bloom and Matt Manning. Bloom was unable to take part in the reunion, so Good recruited Taylor Larson on guitar, Spencer Sotelo of Periphery on vocals, and Ernie Slenkovich on drums. FFTL's Kickstarter project was successfully funded in late 2013. Their original goal was to write and record an EP, but they ultimately decided to release an LP. That full-length album, titled "Dead Trees," was released in April 2015 under Sumerian Records. FFTL played their first reunion show with Black Veil Brides on Halloween night of 2014 at the Marquee Theater in Tempe, Arizona. They went on to complete a short West coast U.S. tour in December 2014.

In October 2016, Matt announced via Twitter that he is involved in a new band called Kill It With Fire. The band includes Matt Good on vocals and guitar, along with Ben Bruce from Asking Alexandria on guitar, and Zack Hansen from The Word Alive on bass,(drummer TBA). Matt Good stated "It's gonna be pretty pop punk, but not too pop punk. Just the right amount". Matt also stated the record will probably be done by Christmas. However, all tweets regarding the project has since been deleted and has not been mentioned since, placing the status of project in unknown.

i didn't know this until i got an email from one of his fans who dropped it in there as an aside, but i guess this proves matt and i arent gay lovers. matt was born on a glacier in the north pole. because of global warming he came down to civilization to yell at those responsible. i met him on a sunny day on venice beach and put a dollar in his guitar case after he played some molly hatchet for me. taller in person than he appears on disc, matthew knows what he likes and will happily tell you about it. favorites include apple computers, news.bbc.co.uk, american guitars, vancouver, and of course his dogs. every band or recording artist has a pattern when it comes to their fans. some fans want to know every detail, some fans are totally forgiving and loyal, some whisper behind their back, some are only there during the peaks. matt good fans are totally dedicated, knowledgeable, and incredibly sweet. matt is also suprisingly trusting. the man has told me [...]
