Yellowcard have parted ways with their bass player, Sean O'Donnell. The split seems to be amicable, with O'Donnell saying the following:

"This is not one of those ugly messy band member departures that seem to plague rock music. This is a personal decision, and it's mine. Simple as I can put it, playing in a band that is on a full time touring schedule demands a balancing act of work and family that I can no longer pull off and still remain happy. As you can imagine, this was not an easy decision to make, but usually the really important ones never are."

The band's most recent release was last year's When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes. They are slated to perform at the Musink and Groezrock festivals this spring.
