The Heartless Control Everything

The Heartless Control Everything is the third EP from the American post-hardcore band The Chiodos Bros, later known simply as Chiodos. It was released January 25, 2003 on the label Search and Rescue Records. Craig Owens, Matt Goddard and some of the band members are big fans of Square-Enix's popular selling PS2 video game Kingdom Hearts, and the title is a nod towards it since the villains in the game are called Heartless.
