Math-rock takes a serious blow as both Adebisi Shank and You Slut! split

Speaking via Facebook, You Slut! stated:

"...we have decided that as of today You Slut! are no more.

Special thanks go to Phil and Neil of Stressed Sumo Records who unleashed our music to a wider audience than just our practice room. And huge kisses, hugs and slightly uncomfortable fondles for all of you for your wonderful, continued support over the years. Without you coming to our gigs, buying our music and merch and tittering at our frankly awful jokes then we'd probably have just sat becoming world beaters at Pro Evolution Soccer.

I've left the number to the Samaritans, you know, just in case...
08457 90 90 90 * (UK)

Much love - Daz, Gav, Rich & Sam. x"

Adebisi Shank were equally serious in their Facebook farewell:

"THIS IS THE END OF A BAND CALLED ADEBISI SHANK

Dear friends,

We hereby announce the end of a band called Adebisi Shank. From the three of us to all of you, thank you for coming with us on this crazy journey. To Cathy and the Sargent House crew past and present, thank you for believing in us.

Life and music moves on - Lar is making music in All Tvvins, Vin is producing/mixing, working on video games and other cool stuff as VMC Sound, and is also one half of Speed of Snakes. Mick will continue to train for his UFC career.

This Thursday and Friday in Whelans, we will play on an Irish stage for the very last time. Join us if you can. After that, we intend to honour our one existing overseas tour commitment.

To any kids starting bands we offer one piece of advice - play music you love, with people you love, for the people you love.

We saw a million faces

Vin, Lar + Mick (-_-) xxx"

Goodnight, sweet princes.
