The Butterfly Effect Lay it All Bare with DVD Release

The Butterfly Effect are taking us behind the scenes with the release of their brutally honest documentary and live DVD set.

The Effected DVD caps off an epic twelve year career, which has seen the band play more than 500 shows and sell around 200, 000 albums. It also closes the door on the first chapter of the band following the departure of lead singer Clint Boge last year.

“If nothing else, our fans know that we’re always honest and we went into this DVD wanting to really lay it out on the table and tell the whole story. If we’re going to open a new chapter of The Butterfly Effect story, it’s important there are no secrets and this is a real opportunity for fans to see what the pressures of being in a touring band can do,” said drummer Ben Hall.

The Butterfly Effect’s Effected DVD hits stores today.

The Butterfly Effect Tour Greatest Hits Album

With singer Clint Boge spreading his wings, The Butterfly Effect are closing their current chapter with the release of a retrospective album, called Effected, on April 23. The 18-track disc spans The Butterfly Effect’s entire history, from their self-titled debut EP to their 2007 album Final Conversation of Kings.

The classic Butterfly Effect will take these beloved songs on the road one last time for the Effected tour. The tour dates offer fans a final chance to see the line-up that’s rocked Australia for the last ten years.

Tickets for the Effected shows are selling fast, and The Butterfly Effect are thanking fans for that support with the release of a free acoustic version of “Gone.” It’s available exclusively to members of The Butterfly Effect’s mailing list. You can sign up through the band’s Facebook page.
