Well, what can you say...?
I s'pose the rumours helped to soften the blow a bit, but still a bit of a shock.
Having read what Martin had to say, and then some of the postings on the Skyclad message board, I don't think there's much more left to say.
I have been a fan of Skyclad since their first album, and I will be interested to see what they are like without Martin. I am also interested to see what Martin gets up to!
I totally respect his reasons, and think it is a good opportunity to divide into 2 great bands instead of just one.
If Martin does read this forum at all, I wish you all the best for the future mate, I'm sure, whatever you do now, it can't possibly be anything but brilliant. Thanks for all your years in Skyclad, I was very fortunate to see you a few times and all left happy memories.
Cheers.
(p.s. maybe this should've gone on the Skyclad board, but that seemed a little overrun!).
