 Arctic Monkeys have revealed that bassist Andy Nicholson has quit the band.
Nicholson had pulled out of the band's North American tour last month, suffering from exhaustion, while Nick O'Malley filled in.
The band have given no official reason for the departure other than to say he has left the band and to offer him their "very best".
O'Malley will continue on bass for the forseeable future.
In a posting on the band's official website, the remaining members revealed: "We are sad to tell everyone that Andy is no longer with the band.
"Nick O'Malley, who stood in for Andy while he was absent from the recent tour of North America, shall carry on playing bass for the remaining shows this summer.
"We have been mates with Andy for a long time and have been through some amazing things together that no one can take away. We all wish Andy the very best."
