That Tanuki post seems like a super screwed up way to try and bring false hope to mourning fans. Also, that site is mostly bull.
Let the band do its thing and fade out.
The ignore function is a godsend. My MH experience is about 2 be twice as Godly. No more divas. Hide ya kids. Hide ya wife. The MAD Stallion is raising hell.
Crowd funding has become way to common these days, enough so that its almost unsettling to me. I'm just gonna stick to supporting my go to bands the same way by attending shows, and buying albums/singles/ etc.
^Your post reminds me,
I really hope they decide to use new tunings............
I'm getting a bit tired of the usual drop B and C. They've did drop A once, which was hella cool.
This sudden disbandment is too friggin sudden. Like I still don't get it, even after reading the member comments. Camera Obscura was pretty banging. Goes to show you that we really don't know what goes on behind closed doors. But this is typical indies VK. The members are established enough to find new projects so they'll be good.
The gap from Beautiful Deformity to this live really has me hopeful for a new announcement, especially since they just released a new look. I too hope whatever new music they drop is fresh and new. They've had more than enough time now to write and polish up stuff.
