Traurige Mitteilung: Eine meiner Lieblingsbands, The Cooper Temple Clause, hat sich aufgelöst. Auf der offiziellen Website der Band schreibt Daniel Fisher:

“It is with a sad and heavy heart that I must announce that The Cooper Temple Clause have decided to split up.

Last week I informed the rest of the boys that I would be leaving the band. As I hope you will all be able to understand, it was perhaps the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. When the only life you have ever known is that of your five best friends and the music you make, the thought of leaving that life is not one to be considered lightly and I assure you all that the decision was not an easy one to make. Nonetheless, it was something I felt I had to do. I can only apologise from the bottom of my heart for the disappointment this will undoubtedly cause many of you.”

Bereits 2005 hatte sich Didz Hammond von der Band verabschiedet, das musikalische Niveau wurde danach nie mehr wirklich erreicht. Schade ist es trotzdem um die Band – mein TCTC-T-Shirt werde ich nun noch ehrenhafter tragen. (Info via “intro.de“)
