Direttamente dal sito ufficiale apprendiamo la notizia che i Metal Church, tra gli act di maggior spicco del power metal americano, si scioglieranno. Una delle cause di tale scioglimento sembra essere l'imminente bancarotta da parte dell'etichetta SPV, anche se la band in nuovo comunicato fa sapere che questa non è la cusa prima.
Eccovi il comunicato ufficiale della band:
A message from the band..
July 7 , 2009
To all of our fans and friends...
We regretfully announce that Metal Church is calling it quits.
The performance at Rocklahoma will be our last show. We have had to cancel the shows scheduled for August and that, among other things, has led us to have to make this decision.
There has been far too much frustration and disappointment in trying to keep moving forward. The collapse of our record company, SPV, has made it next to impossible for us continue in any kind of professional manner due to lack of tour support. This decision was not made lightly.
We do have unfinished business in the studio, and with any luck we will have something that will be of interest to Metal Church fans in the near future.
We would like to thank all the fans that have stuck with Metal Church through all these years, the line-up changes and the ups and downs.
We can't tell you how much your support has meant to us, we appreciate each and every one of you.
It's been a great ride... thanks for being a part of it.
Metal Church
