Bomb The Music Industry! plan to break up after current tour, post a new song

Bomb The Music Industry! plan to break up after current tour, post a new song

August 7, 2012 (June 6, 2017) // Riot Fest

According to a blog post published this morning, Bomb The Music Industry! will soon be no more. After their current tour the band is set to break up, though they do leave the caveat that they are able to take it back and reunite if they want to. Part of the the statement about the break up says

There’s a very very good chance this upcoming US tour is going to be our last time coming through most of these cities. We all still love each other and love playing music together. There’s no weird rifts or anything. To put it simply, the 9 – 10 months or our lives when we are not playing music are not fantastic. To put it complicatedly, those months are weird vortexes (vortices?) of time where we float in between weird jobs that further us in very little ways as human beings aside from you know, the thrill delivering ten sheets of plexi to celebrity photo shoots (glamorous!) or the satisfaction of doing sound for another Green Day cover band (very glamorous!)… it seems like it’s just time to see if there’s anything out there that can provide us with full-time joy instead of part-time joy.

To soften the blow, the post comes with a brand new song posted at the end, “80’s Through the 50’s” that you can stream or download below.
