The F-Ups have called it quits. The band left a message on their Myspace blog with the story and the band's statement.

fisrt off, as you all know we havent been touring or posting new songs on our site due to the falling apart of the line up….The Fuck Ups was and only will be the original four. We did try out new people, but it was a totally different situation. I guess the chemistry between everyone changed which meant, so did the music. With the music starting to head in a different direction, and also with the loss of Andy the record lable started to "re-think" their investment in us……Which isnt their fault. You have to understand a label no matter what size is a buisiness. You have to cut your losses. So they did.

While this spells the end of the band as it is currently, they have promised that they will be active in the future:

We plan on writing more rock oriented songs other than the previous pop-punk songs we used to write…..I guess you never know what to expect when you are writing….It comes out how it comes out. Once we get out there and get situated which really shouldnt take much more than a month, we will actually start posting our new material for you all to hear.

The band released their self-titled debut on Capitol in 2004.

There are abso-fucking-lutly NO hard feelings so none of you should have any towards the label…..
With all that being said I would like to move on to thanking all of you for your support.
We have had such an amazing time this past year. We still want all of you to keep in touch on this site and also to look for updates because Chris and I are moving to Las Vegas in a week! Which means him and I are going to continue writing more music….

I really wish there was a way to express how I feel about all of you. I know alot of us havent met, but it really means something when someone believes in you, and gives you their support…..
We are just going to keep pressing on with our dream no matter what fucking obsticle gets in our way. We hope you all do the same. So thank you everybody. Rock the fuck out, and keep in touch!
