why did that god-awful travesty of a band testicicles split up? don't get me wrong i'm fucking delighted but i thought they'd be around for at least another six months stinking up my ears. now i find out they did the decent thing and called it a day.. why?

i read an interview with them in a german magazine where they slagged ireland off and said no good music exsisted in ireland. they obviously never heard u2.
 
I have a testicicles ep and I like it so nerr. It's no better or no worse than a load of of other screamo-lite type stuff.
 
Are Clor also Testicles? What's going on? Why did Clor break up? Japeo, will you break up with me?
 
I didn't bother to read all of this, but it's from their myspace page:

FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS!

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Hmm, well, I not really sure how to explain this, but I gather from the comments that have been left on our myspace page over the last twenty-four hours that you all know that our 'group', band', 'project' or whateveryawannacallit is going to split up.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]I've just spent the last hour writing a dissertation about what our band is/was/intended-to-be and have twisted my brain inside out trying to explain the chaos, dilemmas and confusion that has engulfed this band in the past 18months, I'm not even sure I understand what has happened to us let alone trying to explain it to someone else.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]We started this band in August 2004, our only intention was to have bit of fun, to play a few shows, cause some trouble and to split up shortly afterwards, the fact of the matter is that we played our 5millionth gig the other day after a year of multiple tours and we're sick, tired and miserable, and to put it simply, it just isn't fun anymore and hasn't been for a very long time, so we've decided it's time to find something that does make us happy because unfortunately this isn't it.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]The original plan was to play a UK tour, European Tour and American Tour all in succession, finishing up with our final 5 shows around the UK in April.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]I think we always suspected that at some point during this three month period of constant touring that something would go wrong and unfortunately that time came after the final show of our European tour in St. Malo last week, I'm not say who it was who snapped or in what circumstance but it had been a long time coming and I was almost relieved when it actually happened.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]I'm really sorry to anyone who was looking forward to seeing us playing at that NME show or catching us on tour in the US, I hope that anyone who bought a ticket manages to get their money back without too much hassle. I would've loved to have toured the US, but in our current state of disrepair it was never going to happen and if we did try and make it happen it probably would have led to something much worse happening and the three of us disappearing somewhere near Utah never to be seen again, or something like that, so unfortunately the US tour wasn't to be. We will however play our final shows in April, that'll give us some time to sort our heads out and hopefully we can all have a week long 'fuck the Test Icicles' party together ? should be a good way to kill us off I think, bring your shovels and we'll bury Test Icicles once and for all.[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Ok, well, I don't really know what else to say other than thanks to anyone who invested their time, money and effort into this band, i.e. the people who bought our records and came to see us play, I know it probably doesn't always seem like it, but we do appreciate it.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]With a bit of luck the next projects that we undertake, whether they be comic books, Nobel prize winning scientific discoveries or, who knows, maybe just maybe another band, will be better than Test Icicles and you'll look back and be glad we split up ?[/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]For the time being I'm going to grow a beard, move to the forest and work on my hillbilly-psych-out-jams and we'll see you in April, clean shaven and ready to fuck some shit up for the last time as Test Icicles!!!![/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Take care of your badass-mudda-fuggin-selves, Luurve,[/FONT]

it's not you it's me. i'm just going through some weird shit at the minute. i think i just need to be by myself for a while. i'm sorry.

no seriously, i've given it a lot of thought and i think it's for the best. there's no point in talking about it. listen, take care of yourself alright. look after yourself.
 
Clor are Roots Manuva's backing band?
Couple o decent tunes on the Clor album I reckon.
