After a brief trial period together, the band and Miles Copeland have amicably decided to part company, but have not ruled out working on some projects together in the future. This does NOT mean the band are not reuniting. it just means that Miles is not a part of their management team any longer.

The first track to be completed on the recording front for the new album is entitled "Taste the Summer." It is an "up tempo-groove number," according to the band.
