awful news...

I didn't realize they had so few artists on their roster, I thought they had more then they list.

Jonny Craig is also removed from that list.

The two most interesting bands on their roster.

I was thinking the exact same thing! Family problems? lol

pmtoday is by far my favorite band. Rise wasnt a good fit for them and didnt give them they support they deserve. The are probably the most talented band Rise has had, along with Oceana.

I have heard pmtoday is selling their van to help pay for their new cd and that their younger brother will start playing keys for them. They had a show here in Oklahoma City but had to cancel because Rise wanted them to continue working on their new cd. They had a three cd contract with Rise.

I really hope these guys get a break. They are the most humble guys I have ever met.

Yeah, I remember them saying something about a 3 album contract. I keep thinking that Rise is gonna start a spin-off label or something (haters would have a nervous breakdown). I don't know how Rise draws up their contracts but usually when an artist signs a multi-album deal the label has to buy the band out (like what happened to Mariah Carey after Glitter tanked). If they're selling their van its because they've gone independent.

Which younger brother? Cuinn or Griffin? Cuinn plays guitar for them now and Griffin's like 15.

Maybe they're starting a new imprint and signing more bands like these? Otherwise, Rise doesn't have much anymore...

They were kinda outcasts on the roster

Yeah but when fans are asking if they are breaking up, they are not responding. Silence from a band is ALWAYS bad news.

They are under contract, that's likely why they are not allowed to voice the truth. I think they are done which is sad.

Tides Of Man isn't done. Did you see the new demo "Spineless"? www.souncloud.com/tidesofman
