I wasn’t really a fan of by-the-numbers metalcore outfit A Girl A Gun A Ghost, but I just read singer Matte Wagner’s statement regarding the group’s break-up on Lambgoat, and it’s so fucking honest and funny that I just had to share it with you all:

“Not that anyone cares, but A Girl A Gun A Ghost is officially totally done. After a year of never announcing I was kicked out, they decided to not announce that they were folding as a group. I just wanted anyone who still may care to know this. Thanks.”

Bands, take note: that is how you announce a break-up. No bullshit excuses, no hype, no niceties. This dude clearly doesn’t even have any illusions about how (un)popular his band was; he is just being 100% straight-forward.

Matte Wagner, I’m sorry I didn’t like your music more… but today, you have totally earned my respect.

Not that anyone cares.

  • I’m not racist, but I hate Oceano

    Sounds like he’s bitter about something. Not that anyone cares.

    If a band with a ridiculous name breaks up, and they don’t have any fans, does anyone give a shit?

    (I don’t.)

      Despite their ridiculous name, the band still had more fans than most of Ziltoid’s bands.

        Don’t say that, Ziltoid will get a boner tomorrow at school when he reads that

    Nah, I don’t care anymore.

      sounds like someone being facefucked

      not that anyone cares…

  • no-ghost

    does a no name band with no fans make a sound?
    not that anyone cares.

    Axl, I care what you think, not that you care.

  • fearo

    What the hell is a care?

  • i think

    being not to loud about stuff makes people want to know more.

    Test Icicles break-up statement:

    “We started this band in August 2004, our only intention was to have bit of fun, to play a few shows, cause some trouble and to split up shortly afterwards, the fact of the matter is that we played our 5 millionth gig the other day after a year of multiple tours and we’re sick, tired and miserable, and to put it simply, it just isn’t fun anymore and hasn’t been for a very long time, so we’ve decided it’s time to find something that does make us happy because unfortunately this isn’t it.”
