"We�d like to apologize to fans in America and Canada, especially those who have already bought tickets, but something had to give. We�ve been extremely busy all year and had no time to focus on the future, we plan to have new material out as soon as possible and we�ve wanted to record all summer.

"This needs to happen before our European & UK shows at the end of the year so we can play a few of our new songs live, we�re keen to explore new ground, beyond the sound of our first two records, so we�re headed back into the studio to begin that process."
