Hostage Calm stopt

De Amerikaanse punk band Hostage Calm heeft vandaag aangekondigd dat het doek voor hun na 7 jaar gevallen is. Op Facebook kondigde de band dit aan met het volgende statement:

Hostage Calm has broken up. It’s too soon, it’s too young, and it hurts too much.

All planned shows are canceled. We are still figuring out if and when there will be any final shows.

I want to personally thank every one of you who supported us over the years. You shared so much more with us than you’ll ever know. From our music to our politics, you helped make a bunch of Wallingford kids’ foolish dreams a reality. It was the great privilege of our young lives.

To all of you who’ve connected with us, who’ve grown with us, who’ve loved, changed, cried, lived with us – and to all of you who will yet – Just know that we loved what we did, and we could never have done it alone. “I’ve been a hero, and I’ve been a fool. And all of it for you.”

Yours Forever,
Hostage Calm

De band zou op 12 april samen met Man Overboard en Roam optreden in Dynamo Eindhoven. Momenteel is er nog geen sprake van dat de andere bands niet zullen optreden. Hostage Calm heeft sinds 2007 in totaal vier albums uitgebracht, waaronder vrij recent nog Die On Stage.
