London-based punk rockers The King Blues have announced that they have split up yesterday, following eight years and three studio albums together.
The controversial band announced the news on their official website, and promised fans that they would release one last album in July to sign off. The announcement came with an official statement from the band, which revealed that the group thought they’d taken their career ‘as far as it could go’.
The statement reads: “It is with great sadness and very heavy hearts that we must inform you that, as of today, The King Blues are no more. We are all immensely proud of our body of work.
“We will be releasing the last The King Blues album entitled 'Long Live The Struggle' as the final chapter. The album will be released in early July 2012.
“We simply feel we have taken things as far as they can go and it would be unfair on you if we were to go through the motions like so many other artists do. We all believe strongly in what The King Blues stands for.”
If you’re a fan, stay with Stereoboard to find out more on their final album ‘Long Live the Struggle’.
