Friday, May 16, 2025 – Atlanta, GA sextet The Callous Daoboys welcomes you to the grand opening of The Museum Of Failure with the release of their highly anticipated new album ‘I Don’t Want to See You in Heaven’, out via MNRK Heavy. Leading up to today, patrons observed exhibits “Two-Headed Trout/The Demon of Unreality Limping Like a Dog“, “Lemon“, and most recently, “Distracted by the Mona Lisa“. Speaking about the journey of the record, bassist Jackie Buckalew said:
“The process of putting this album together has been incredibly rewarding, from writing riffs with Carson in his room to hearing the full thing mixed and mastered for the first time. It’s a pretty monumental step forward, both for us as a band and for each of us individually as musicians. These songs pushed us to our limits and I think that really shines through.“
When asked about the album, violinist Amber Christman shared:
“This record feels like the natural culmination of everything we’ve been building toward since the beginning of this band. It feels like a blend of all of us—our spirits, what we love, what we live for, and what we work for. Releasing it now is especially meaningful, and we hope it resonates with you as much as it’s been a labor of love for us.“

ABOUT THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS
A fearlessly free-spirited collective from Atlanta, Georgia, The Callous Daoboys revels in high-strung extremity, careening from furious metal cacophony to unabashed rock ‘n roll and back again. The band Kerrang! hails as “gloriously chaotic” is like a Molotov cocktail combining extreme metal and nü-metal with life-affirming glee, as each song deliriously swerves across stylistic lines.
The Callous Daoboys are frontman Carson Pace, possessed like a young Mike Patton; fretboard-abusing guitarists Maddie Caffrey and Daniel Hodsdon; frantic bassist Jackie Buckalew; destructive drummer Matthew Hague; and spirited violinist Amber Christman.
Celebrated by SPIN, Fader, Revolver, Brooklyn Vegan, and New Noise (who praised the band as “innovative, unflinching, brazen”), The Callous Daoboys have turned heads on raucous tours with TesseracT, Protest The Hero, and SeeYouSpaceCowboy, and at prestigious international metal festivals. Celebrity Therapist (2022) more than delivered on the promise of the band’s early rumblings. I Don’t Want to See You in Heaven (2025) ups the ante on every conceivable level. The album was produced by Dom Maduri (Silly Goose, GEL, Bummer Hill). The Callous Daoboys resurrect noise rock as if they’re summoning the dead. Sure, every band claims to blend heavy riffs with catchy melodies as if that’s somehow fresh by itself, but this crew delivers that with a wrecking ball of unrestrained frenzy and total mayhem. The band’s three full-length albums and various EPs loudly testify to their fearless creativity and clever craftsmanship. – Ryan Downey
