Mourning for Grief

So as Blabbermouth reported yesterday, Boston evil doomers Grief are done. It’s enough to beg the question, “Hey, Grief were still together?” Here’s the statement from bassist Eric C. Harrison as quoted on that site:

Our reasons for disbanding are our reasons. We have chosen not to get into it but it may or may not include the following reasons.

* Jeff [Hayward; vocals, guitar] has finally become Rip Van Winkle and will be asleep for the next 50 years.
* Ray [McCaffrey; drums] has finally eaten so much that he can not fit out of the door to his house and is unable to leave home
* John [Heidenrich; guitar, vocals] has become so death metal that we’ d have to actually be ghosts to jam with him and none of us feel like it.
* Eric finally became an actual dog and has not learned how to play bass or do artwork with his paws.

We will not be playing the Maryland Deathfest in May of 2009.

We’re sorry for anyone that this disappoints, but whatever. Shit happens.

Well, that does it. Thanks for the sarcasm, see you guys in two years for the reunion tour.

Oh you tried to invert the picture on your MySpace, but GIMP can take care of that. Enjoy your purple logo, mwa ha ha!  ...Oh man, I really gotta stop putting so much thought into these picture captions.
