July 28, 2009 - Tuesday 
After 3 years , 1 album , 6 singles , a 27 track compilation CD and a DVD , plus more hit and run , feedback and noise drenched 20 minute gigs than we can remember.... The Manhattan Love Suicides have decided to split.

The reason ? Quite simple really : We'd made our point.

Some bands form , and they keep going for many years. The Manhattan Love Suicides were never about that. We were never career driven ; we just wanted to make an impact , like 4 sticks of dynamite thrown into a stale music scene. And in our own way , we did what we set out to do.

The music remains , and that is the most important thing. We're all very proud of how much we did in the short time we existed. The last thing we ever wanted was to become stale. End it while it's still fresh. While it's still vital. While it still counts.

So , thanks to everyone who came to see us , to everyone who appreciated the music and to everyone who supported us. This is not the end , it's just a new beginning. Adam and Rachel have formed The Medusa Snare and the debut album will be released by Squirrel Records soon , Caroline and Darren are contributing vocals and guitar respectively to Ailsa Craig , aswell as working on new material together which will be released later in the year.

CLUSTERFUCK 7" EP
Out Now on Squirrel Records

1. Clusterfuck
2. Detroit Diesel
3. Burning Wire
4. Heat And Panic

Four brand new songs.  From the Squirrel website: "...Recorded with the needles in the red and without too much polish, but still keeping the pop elements that make them what they are: "Clusterfuck" will be familiar to anyone who has ever seen the band play live, "Detroit Diesel" is three minutes of My Bloody Valentine inspired noise, "Burning Wire" doesn't even hit the 2 minute mark and is raw sounding pop at its best, and finally "Heat And Panic" is rough, noisy, sweet and abrasive all at the same time. It could even be "Sister Ray" condensed into three and a half minutes."  Strictly Limited Edition.
