Hey guys. I haven't commented or replied properly about what's been going with the band but here's the full deal..

Last Friday May 3rd, on the eve of our album launch, our bassist and close friend Adam 'Milky' Adams passed away suddenly due to what seems to be a heart attack. We honestly still don't know up from down and are still just on autopilot. I've never lost anyone so close to me personally before and I'm just taking each day as it comes, doing my best (and our best) to support Milky's family (he left a wife and 3 beautiful children behind) and take steps towards where we need to be.

Outside of his family, Milky loved his music more than anything, and was always putting in 110% despite having SO many responsibilities in his life. He was so excited about this release and for us, it's so important to continue the band for him and for everyone.

It's one of those things, it's going to take a fucking shit load of time and tears to get through this on the other side, but we are keeping it together and taking everything one step at a time.

I want to say thanks to all you guys who've personally messaged me or contacted us and sent their condolences/ thoughts and support to us and his family.

If you guys want to show your respects or keep up with anything, just follow the facebook page, it's probably the easiest at the moment.

As I said, the album is out now, and Milky loved every bit of it, I don't really care if anyone buys it at this point.. I just want everyone to take a chance to hear what his heart went into and what we all achieved together as a group.
