yeah but to be fair, Khanate was as much the other 3 members' band than O'Malley if not more so.Dubin apparently has a new project on the go..details being announced soon apparently.That should be interesting...

Gill, bring a crash helmet to SunnO)))

 

[AndyNexus]

Shame to hear that, glad I got to see them live when I did. Roll on SunnO))))

 

[mackle]

Fuck sake. Wish I had gone out of my way to see them now. Damn work.

Where'd you hear that though Jamie?

Plotkin and Dubin confirmed it on the Southern Lord forum a few days ago.there's a thing about all future Khanate activity being cancelled due to "lack of commitment" on Plotkin's site as well.

Saw a few decent shows from them, that's a shame..

Didn't I read there was a new burning witch album on the cards sometime soon though as well?

From plotkinworks.com

"I have decided to leave KHANATE due to the lack of commitiment of certain members. The decision was a difficult one, as I've put six years and immeasurable amounts of creativity into the band hoping to take it as far as possible. The past year has brought about many missed opportunities and the realization that some players are more concerned with personal careers and day jobs rather than the advancement of music as an artform. I will continue to work with drummer Tim Wyskida on a number of other projects, mainly KHLYST and our improvisational duo. Gratitude to all those that have supported what we have done and acknowledged our importance in modern music.

The companion album to Capture & Release is currently being mixed. This yet untitled work consists of spontaneous recordings made during the C&R sessions dating back to February 2005. This will be my final work in KHANATE."
