Boysetsfire have announced that drummer Matt Krupanski has parted ways with the band.
The band posted the following statement about Krupanski's departure:
"I've written and erased this announcement a number of times over the last few months. I can't say whether it's that I don't know the right way to approach what I'm saying or if the act of saying it gives a certain finality to the words but here goes...
Matt Krupanski, long-time friend, will not be playing with us anymore. He has a number of incredible opportunities in his life right now and understandably will pursue them. It turns out when we saw him reading books with titles like "why buildings stand up" and "why buildings fall down" it was a lot more than just a vague interest in architecture, it was a new passion. Matt graduated from the Pratt institute last spring after 5(?) challenging years learning things that make ZERO sense to me and now he will put that knowledge to good use.
This is the spot that I get to with each revision and start to gush or whatever, but knowing Matt he wouldn't want that. I'll just end mine with this: love you, brother. Yer my boy, Blue!"
