I Was A Cub Scout Split

It isn't every day that a new band have such an impact and then decide that enough is enough. Yesterday I Was A Cub Scout posted this on their MySpace page:

"Hello friends, here goes. Tonight (June 5) we have decided that I Was A Cub Scout has and must now come to a close. We have had countless problems over the past year or so and with yet more occurring we it best to end on what would seem like a decent note. We will be honouring all of our UK shows of which we have confirmed, with the iTunes festival at KOKO with Death Cab For Cutie on July 14 being our last. We will speak more of it all soon, but for now we must tour. It is a very sad day for us."

The band's debut (and now only album) I Want You To Know That There Is Always Hope is one of my top 5 albums of the year. Such a shame that a promising band have split but they have there reasons.
