Dead To Fall has called it a day. The band explained:

Dead to Fall is no more. After 9 years, it’s time to say good-bye. There really isn’t an easy way to say this, but the Dead To Fall machine broke beyond repair this last weekend. I guess the financial, personal, and emotional strains wore some of us down and caused a violent collapse. After a show in Wisconsin, Logan and Chad quit this past weekend.

I won’t go into the whole ‘behind the music band break up scenario’ but it was a night filled with retarded actions and words. The rest of us don’t want to go through yet another major line-up change and really are just ready for a new chapter in our lives. The Super Massive Fist tour with Impending Doom, Arsonists Get All the Girls and Sea of Treachery is continuing on without us. We have no idea if we are going to play a last show or not, but at this point there is nothing planned.

The band released Are You Serious? this year.

Manchester, CT-based Life In Your Way have announced plans to disband after a short tour to Cornerstone and a local show. Fontman Joshua Kellam had this to say in a myspace blog:

“It has become apparent to us that ending now on a good note would be the best way to go out for Life In Your Way. Of course there are specific reasons why it is a good time to end the over 9 years of music, touring, band member changes, hundreds of different merchandise designs, passions and frustrations of being in a band for that long. There is no reason to get into each one; they are just the obvious if you can relate to musicians in this kind of scene.

The band released Waking Giants last year.

True Widow (ex-Slowride) has signed to End Sounds 

The label describes the band as “brooding and haunting slowcore in a blend of country, garage, and shoegaze with Dan Phillips’ signature morphine drip vocal melodies”.  True Widow’s debut full-length will be out in Fall 2008 and the band goes into The Echo Lab studio with Matt Pence (Centro-Matic, Ester Drang, Aqueduct) in May.
