Break-ups: Brand New Disaster (2000-2005)

Richmond/Harrisburg, VA-based Tribunal Records act Brand New Disaster has called it quits. The band posted the following on their website:

[It] has nothing to do with fighting or disagreements. We've always been on the best of terms and we're leaving on them too. If I could sum up the reasons in one short sentence, i'd say that "real life" and being in a band have a way of directly colliding with each other on a regular basis. And for some of us right now, "real life" is where we're being called. That being said, we didn't want Brand New Disaster to become a weekend band or just a hobby. It's always been such a huge part of our lives, and to make it a hobby just wouldn't be the same. We've always been all-or-nothing about this band and we felt it was important to remain true to that. [...]

There's already talks of people starting new projects and we'll obviously post any details about those as time goes on.

The band made two full-lengths for Tribunal over the course of their career: 2003's Maybe We Should Run and the recently released Hold Fast the Summer.

Details have also been announced for the band's final three shows. You can click Read More to view them.
