I think Escape the Fate is going tom different without Ronnie, he is the reason why I even listen to Escape the Fate. I love the group so much, maybe i should have made a fan club. Now that he is gone I think this will cause a big impact on the group.

Departure of Radke (2008)

Radke has had a number of run-ins with law enforcement since 2006, many of which were related to narcotics. Radke was also sentenced to five year probation in Las Vegas for his involvement in a fight which took place in May 2006. This fight lead to the shooting death of 18 year old Michael Cook. While Radke did not pull the trigger, his friend was armed and did. Radke pled guilty to one charge of battery with substantial bodily harm after Colquitt,the person Radke initially set up to fight, committed suicide before his sentencing in helping conjure the fight that led to the 18 year olds death. [5] In late 2007 the band ceased all touring due to the incident. He was wanted for parole violation in his hometown Las Vegas as of June 12, 2008, and was caught June 16, 2008.[6] Radke was officially dismissed from the band in early 2008. His out of control drug dependancy, along with his alleged charges as an accomplice in a local murder, had caused all members of the band, except Max Green, to quit. The members later decided to kick Radke out in order to keep Escape The Fate going. Craig Mabbitt from Blessthefall has replaced Radke as frontman and lead singer of the band.[7]

On August 4, 2008 Radke was sentenced to four years in jail.[8] While in jail, Radke posted four MySpace blogs. The first was addressed to his fans and admirers thanking them for the support and stating that he is ready to work on his "next album". It is unknown whether or not this is a reference to a new Escape the Fate album, or if Radke is aware that he was replaced by Mabbitt and have a new album due out in October. The other three blogs had a negative tone and were addressed to the victim's family, Craig Mabbitt, and former band-mate Max Green. In the blog to the family, Radke expressed that he was sorry for what happened but was wrongfully put in jail as a witness to the crime. In the blog to Craig Mabbitt, Radke accused Mabbitt of stealing his ex-girlfriend and trying to be just like him (Radke)[citation needed]. In the blog to Max Green, he states that, "You are the one that deserves to be in this position. YOU are the real culprit," and that Green's "Time is coming. Trust me, you're going to get what you deserve!"[9] Green posted a blog of his own in reaction to Radke's blog stating that Radke was immature and he got what he deserved.[10]

*Craig Mabbitt (new lead singer) better be great.*

Escape the Fate's new album will be called This War is Ours and is due out in the US on October 21, 2008 through Epitaph Records.
