they actually all died in spectacular ways:
Monroe Mustang’s Jason Stout remembers the reasons for the band’s extended hiatus, "Ah, our big break-up. I remember it well. It was just another out of control night back at 4700 RR...We finally made the firm, unquestionable, hard decision that we were breaking up, and then things get disjointed...hazy...Michael, shirtless and armed, shooting randomly at passing cars and shouting ’It’s over for you, too!’ to anyone who tried to stand at the bus stop...Chris and Brian had already taken Taylor’s limo ’to get some ESB’ by way of backyards; the meth that once filled the trunk now coursing through their veins -- they made it to Caswell before SWAT finally took them out. I stayed there in the house, cowering in the shower, fully clothed, for as long as I could...when I finally emerged, soaked in water and my own urine, there was Taylor, in the kitchen. He had doused himself in whiskey, and was just about to light the match..."It’s better to burn out..." he whispered, and then shot me in the chest with a crossbow. But that big, official break-up that we had, that’s in the past now."
and this band photo is really creepy:
(and yes, I see what they did there)
I like the new record okay. It's the first one that didn't sink its teeth in right away, but it sounds exquisite.
kerble is right.
