Break-ups: Latterman (2000-2007)

Latterman has split up. They explained: Bassist Matt Canino sent the following to Punknews.org:

We were a band for 7 years and it
was time to not be a band anymore. I was in New York less and less and
there was some record label stress and things were just getting too weird
with the shows we were getting asked to play, the things we were getting
asked to do, and the way we felt the band was being perceived.

Personally,
I don't give a shit about "being positive" or whatever that meant when we
were all 18, and the most people seemed to be getting out of the band was
"how important friendships are." Well how fucking boring is that? No shit
friendships are important, but I think that was far away from the messages
we were trying to convey with Latterman.

I Felt like a broken record going
on tour and talking about sexism in punk rock every night and then some
fucking bro–dudes coming up to me and saying some fucked up shit. I even
got to a point where I stopped calling them out on it, and that just felt
wrong. I was tired. Basically, it just stopped making sense for everyone
in the band to keep on doing the band.

The band released ...We Are Still Alive in 2006.Update:The following was omitted and seems integral to Matt's message:

This doesn't sum up how pat, phil, and brian feel obviously, or even all of my feelings on it, but I guess it's a concise version of what happened. We are all still friends.
