After a while I started to think Daisy would be it too, but Gyro is right about this feeling like a proper end.



Speaking of which, I saw a post that the band was hanging out again. I don't expect that they were doing anything other than that, but it was nice to see after all the problems.

I don’t know where they could even take their sound from here. I’m perfectly fine with this being the end, just bummed as hell I never got to see them live.

I want the 100s of demos/full songs they surely have recorded to leak.

I dont see them ever putting more music out. im not sure how wealthy Jesse is but id say at least in the low millions or so. that is plenty to ride off into a shameful sunset

I get hanging it up, but I can't help wondering what a demo dump with all proceeds going to organizations combatting women's abuse would do for the band’s image and fan's sense of closure alike. It wouldn't have to come with any formal announcement or admission, just a gesture of good will that would end their career on a slightly less negative note.



That said, Lacey is a perfectionist and probably would hate releasing something unfinished (at least on purpose). So I doubt it will ever happen even though it's clearly the correct PR move.

I can almost guarantee his net worth is 7 figures unless he's done some dumbass shit with his income.

just not sure how. he's pretty young so compound interest hasn't been on his side much yet, assuming he is even a principled saver/investor. and bands don't make a ton from streaming. tours + merch get you the big bucks but of course that ain't happened in years

who knows

I heard he was working at a t-mobile store or something, not sure how true that is. If so it doesn't exactly reek of him swimming in cash.

I also know for a fact that he is ghost producing albums, that much was verified by folks in the know

I have no interest in a new album. Science Fiction is a perfect finale, leave it be.

Demos and unreleased cuts on the other hand, be my Guest

SF is definitely the ideal swan song, so I have no qualms with letting go. Obviously, if they dropped another LP, I'd still listen though lol.
