The band had remained quiet since the completion of the tour, but when Dougard was recently asked about the status of the band on his Tumblr page, he answered with:


"Band broke up. Members left one by one to do other things with their lives that they felt more passionate about. I finished some tours and shows that were already booked because I didn’t want to fuck over any promoters bands or most importantly TAIB fans who planned on seeing us… I'm just one member and it doesn’t seem right to add a bunch of new members and call them TAIB regardless of the blood sweat and tears I put into that band."


The band's final release was their 2011 album "Great Faith In Fools", which was released through Rise Records.
