I'm gutted, but I can't say it surprises me all that much. Despite being one of the UK's best metal acts, they never seemed to garner much media coverage and seemed doomed to play to a 'cult' audience... I'm gonna go check out the website now to find out what their reasons are, see if I'm right in my guess.
It was because they were, basicaly, sick of each other. I can't say that surprises me - when you tour as much as they did (and that, to anyone who didn't know of them, was a hell of a lot), and end up being ignored in support slots or only playing to a handfull of people when headlining...well, you're bound to get fed up of the people you have to spend all day staring at in the back of the van.
