Writing on the band's myspace blog, singer and guitarist Andrew Mears said, we're still friends, still love to play and there's no attitude about any of this; we're all at good points in our lives, just very different ones. Life has spread us out over the country now and it's become a logistical nightmare to get our shit together.
