"3 good bands which split up recently"

Evanescence - Ben Moody just randomly walked out on the band and without him the band are pretty screwed coz their pianist left a while ago and they still dont actually hav a bass player!

Audioslave - Sine Tom Morello has been off doing his 'Nightwatchman' thing, the band have pretty much fallen apart over the last few months.

Reef - Dont know the details but the band have officially split.


Slipknot are also due to split after the release of their 4th album.

Slipknot weren't particularly great in my opinion but they do have a massive cult following. However Corey Taylor (I think thats his name) has an exceptional voice that is ultimately wasted with Slipknot and Stone Sour (their side project featuring Corey Taylor, the leader guitarist and I think the bassist of Slipknot) were a much better sounding and well rounded band. Hopefully they will diffuse into Stone Sour full time and not just as a side project like Blink 182 with Boxcar racer.

Pretty good live as well.

I just read that QOTSA are carrying on without the bass player and recording a new album in April. [URL]http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/news/04-03/26.shtml[/URL]

I think the split of QOTSA was a biznatch.

They we're so cool.

I actually like Evanscence so that's a bummer, the album was actually prety good.

And Reef, they made one of the best ever club-sing-along-songs ever. I'll have a tear in my eye whenever I sing along to 'Put your hands on' in the future...

Audioslave were pretty naff though, they were OK but not my cup of tea.

So that means they've split? In that case why not mention Westlife

*wipes tear*

R.I.P Westlife!

Homme has always played in those 'Desert Sessions' thing.

I guess he'll do something cool.

Meanwhile, I must by some John Frusciante and Dave Pajo stuff......

Carry on making guitars.

But what will Brian May do next?
