Outbreak talks leaving Bridge 9, member changes, falling outs, new EP, eventual LP

Ryan O'Connor of Outbreak has posted an update on the band's status which includes some major lineup changes and a departure from Bridge 9 who released 2006's Failure:

The last year has been a really crazy time for me personally and for
Outbreak. Anyone who's seen us over the last year has probably noticed
we've had member changes and multiple fill ins. We've gone through
some rough patches that I feel would be the end of most bands. I'll
start by saying that it won't be the end for Outbreak.

Next week we enter The Outpost with Jim Siegel to record our new full
length album, which will be self titled. As of now, we do not have
confirmation on the label who will be putting it out, but we decided
we're recording anyway. No, it won't be out on Bridge 9. We fulfilled
our contract with Bridge 9 after our last album, so we've been
"shopping" for a couple months now. I think Chris Wrenn (Bridge 9
owner) is a good guy with good intentions and smart business sense,
unfortunately I can't say the same for everyone else I've encountered
at Bridge 9. I'll leave it at that.
