In the past few months weve been going through some member changes. Im here to explain that to everyone in hopes that some answers are given. What Im about to explain is 100% honest. Some of the things that will be said are going to be hard to hear, but we believe that you have every right to know whats been going on. We have decided to part ways with our vocalist Sean Thanthavongsa. The decision was made after our last show, where Sean was visibly under the influence while on stage, and had some harsh words about other members of the band (specifically myself) prior to going on stage. Our performance greatly suffered from Seans lack of coherence and tension within the band, and we deeply and sincerely apologize. This is not an image we want to have, and we can assure you that it will never happen again. However - this wasnt a sudden decision. Sean hadnt been clicking with the band for months, and when that happens and people dont communicate their problems (this was on everyones behalf), tensions build and people stop being able to get along. We were disagreeing almost constantly, and progress within the band had come to a near halt. This being said, we have found a new screamer and added another guitar player. We decided to find close friends so that these problems would be avoided in the future, and an announcement will be made very shortly regarding both positions. I can assure you that this line-up is here to stay. The two new members feel like theyve always been a part of the band, and weve been given so much more energy to keep pressing on as a whole. There is such a positive energy in this group now that we had been missing for so long, and we hope that everyone can appreciate where were coming from when we say that we have no regrets. We go into the studio on monday to finish up a new version of our song Keep Listening//Keep Breathing that will feature our new screamer. We are also still on the look-out for a new bass player. If you know anyone who would be interested, send them our way! Thank you all for everything. It means more than you could know. God bless. - Jake and Chris
