No real loss. They got boring. You can only be a drama queen so much of the time. Maybe they'll get a reality tv show now.

Guess Trents not a fan.

I like DG's albums, but they suck as a band. They canceled on Hopscotch when I was planning on seeing them and they canceled on the NIN tour when I planned on seeing them.

They were fun stuff, for sure. Clipping. is way better in my opinion. Hope they bring that shiz live.

When you make a commitment, you need to stick with that commitment. Great way to continue to alienate their fans....

Personally, I think that was the point of most of the schtick. I started looking at them as an art project as opposed to a band.

I looked at it as them being dicks and calling it art.

I guess I dont understand the art project. How are they juxtaposing against current art movements? Or are they being referential of earlier eras of art? And if so, how did they use that in a new or profound way?

They were just trying to cause shock, I think.

Maybe I'm way off base and should just look at them for what they were. A few dudes that made some good music but were a buncha dicks towards the people that loved them. I honestly stopped caring after the first few times they cancelled on whatever I was seeing them at.

Yeah.. I've been cancelled on 3 times and saw them once.. though that time was awesome (2012 in a church basement), I believe everyone that said they declined live overtime.

I'm bummed they broke up because I like their music, but at the same time I'm not surprised at all and probably wouldn't try to see them live again because of the 25% success rate
