"It is with sadness and a great sense of pride, that we have decided to call it a day. This is a completely amicable decision and has been made in the best interests of the band. It has come to a point where we are no longer able to progress and take the band further, we feel this band deserves more respect than just to fade away. This simply is an issue of lack of time and funds; two of the three of us now have families and time has become a lot more precious. To progress as a band we need to dedicate a certain ammount of time to write and record, let alone gigging and touring. This is why we have decided to call it a day at a point where we feel this is something to be proud of. To have played and made music in a band comprised of three oldest and best mates for three years has been an absolute pleasure. We feel incredibly proud of what we have accheived with the limited time and resources that we have had. We are not for one moment suggesting this is something exclusive to our band, many bands manage to write, record and tour with limited funds and with children, unfortunately it hasn't worked for us.
We would like to thank the following bands and people for your huge support and influence over the years, it wouldn't have been possible without you. Ross at Ghosttown Studios, Neil Best Edward, Dan at Desertscene Rock, Dave at Future Noise, Chris at Witch Hunter Records, Matthew Lee, Charlie Barnes, Elles, all our friends and family Ceara, Lorna, Bekki, Sydney, Vincent & Oscar.
Huge shout to the bands we have played with and that have helped us out, Khuda; Wizards Beard, Tree of Sores, A Forest of Stars, Haar, Undersmile, Desert Storm, Conan, Slabdragger, Dead Existence, Lords of Bastard & everyone else that we have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with.
But don't fret, we have a killer finale for you. Line-up including Khuda, Wiards Beard and Tree of Sores on 30th March at Royal Park Cellars, it would be amazing if you could come and send us off Leeds style!
But before that we will be helping Wizards Beard celebrate their album launch at the same venue on 18th February with some killer bands from around the UK."

Serious bummer, they were one of the best stoner bands to come out in the last 10 years. I still listen to their self-titled EP regularly. Glad they ended it the way they did though, similar to Isis.
Harrowing of the North was amazing. Sad to hear they're going but glad they put out such great stuff.
Damn shame, their last album was indeed amazing. Best o' luck to the lads.
bummer, man...ya'll had some good shit...
sad but certainly understandable
