Nachdem Epitaph Records gestern eine Pause von THURDAY nach der nächsten Tour verkündet hatte verkünden THURDAY heute das entgültige Ende ihres musikalischen Bestehens.
Dazu wurde ein Statement mit der schlichten Überschrift "Thank You" auf der Bandwebsite veröffentlicht.
Einen Auszug davon findet ihr nachfolgend. Das komplette Statement gibt es auf http://thursday.net/
Well, if you’ve been touched by our music or our dedication or our embarrassingly out-of-fashion sincerity, then this is for you, friend: thank you for letting us make No Devolución. We hope you’ve heard it. We say “beg, borrow or steal… music is an idea… ideas are free” but we encourage you to support our fantastically sweet and hardworking label, Epitaph, by buying it if you can afford to.
Despite the fantastic year that the band has enjoyed, creatively, things haven’t been as easy for us on a personal level. Without diving into detail, it’s fair to say that this year has been an endless series of personal difficulties. We haven’t had any falling out and are all still close. I’m sure that we will continue to create, in some capacity, together. We’ve talked about turning Thursday into something else: a non-profit, a band that only records sporadically, a collection of other projects… Underneath it all, the personal circumstances involved make it impossible to continue Thursday in the spirit that has made it special. So, we stop. For now, at least.
