. (Gibson) Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr has announced that he is ending his three-year relationship with The Cribs. In an interview with Billboard, excerpted on Marr's own website, Marr said that he is leaving the group on good terms in order to concentrate on new solo material and soundtrack work.

"I'm working on new solo songs," Marr said. "I'll be putting out two records over the next year or so and doing more film soundtrack work."

He added, "Touring and recording with Ryan, Gary and Ross has been fantastic and Ignore the Ignorant is something I'm really proud of. We ended up doing much more than we originally set out to, and I've made three good friends." more on this story
