Michigan metalcore sextet Still Remains have reunited after splitting up in 2008. The band - who took part in the first Kerrang! tour in 2006, with headliners Bullet For My Valentine, Hawthorne Heights and Aiden - outlined their reasons for reforming in a lengthy statement posted on Facebook earlier today (May 7). The statement reads as follows: "Maybe we shouldn't have called it a break-up. Maybe we needed a few years to purge the strain of having six or seven full-time roommates living in a van, and get back to having fun. When Haste The Day asked us to come back for one show none of us immediately said yes. Obviously, we eventually did. Getting together and playing those songs again in a tiny little corner-room in Mike's basement had a bigger effect than we expected. We want more... "We are not aspiring to get back to the same type of touring schedule that we had to walk away from," they continue. "We all have other priorities and many of us are invested in other musical projects, but we know Still Remains has chemistry and musicianship that is not easy to come by. New tunes are in the works and we've booked a hometown show in Grand Rapids. We are looking forward to rocking together again."
