[edit] The Breakup Story?
I heard this story from a guy I know. He used to work as crew for Flaw. He said they broke up because Christ Volz is an alcoholic and was drunk at a show when Ryan Jurhs the bassist started to play the song 'Whole'. Volz said it was the wrong song but the playlist confirmed it was right. But in his drunken state he punched the bassist in the face and a fistfight broke out. The bassist then vowed to never go on stage with chris again and the band broke up. I don't know if this is worthy enough to put on the article. However, it does explain why they suddenly broke up and shows were canceled. Someone else with more wikipedia experience can put it on if they want.

[edit] Changes
This article needs major work. See the Tool and Cold pages for good examples. This article focuses too much on the dissolution of the band and doesn't really give an effective biography in a whole.
[edit] Focus Points
The sound, the story of the band, the tours, the albums, the songs, the members.
I have made some changes to enforce the neutrality of the page,in the Dissolution of Flaw part, the basic message is still there but I changed some of the sentences slightly as it seemed they were stating as a fact both that Universal ignored Flaw in favor of Godsmack which can not be confirmed beyond rumour and that Flaw was a "multi-facited cash-cow" which is hard to say since they were relatively well received but after all were dropped. We will never know if Flaw could've made if BIG.
- Someone apparently either felt it necessary to add that back in or it floated by in a reversion of vandalism. Either way, I've removed it for a second time. I agree that it seems highly unsubstantiated in regard to possible favoritism that Universal might have shown with one band over the other, much less passing over promoting either band less than they should have for interlinked reasons. Speculative notions like that, while interesting, don't belong here on Wikipedia unless someone can provide proof. 75.2.15.162 10:36, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
I will try to remove some of the most biased sentances from the site but somebody else should take a look too in case I miss something or word it incorrectly. I am going to remove any mention that they were "pushed into the nu metal genre" since 1) when I last checked their website, long time ago I admit, it said they were and Aggro-metal band which is widely considered the same thing. 2) the article itself states that they are Nu metal and an article shouldn't contradict itself.Alex 17:09, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tommy Wright?
I was a big fan of flaw while they were together, and have done extensive research on them, and have found no references anywhere to "Tommy Wright" ever having anything to do with the band. Because of this, i am deleting him from the page, if anyone cna find any evidence of hin being in the band at some point, then by all means post it and put him back into the article.--69.213.152.186 09:51, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NPOV
Clearly a mess as far as POV is concerned. zellin t / c 04:06, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- Provide some examples, if you could. I know just by looking at it that someone has altered the musical style section into something that reads like favourable praise but the rest of it seems sound, if not poor in structure. 75.2.15.162 10:26, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] flaw
why dose this page re-direct directly from the word Flaw or Flawed. is an obsure rock band really the most importent artical?
