Bye Bye Elastica
tcarlin by Tom Carlin October 2nd, 2001
Elastica have announced that they are splitting up.

After their second album, The Menace came out last year to disappointing sales. Justine Frischmann issued this statement: "Yes, we have split up. It's actually not official yet. We've got a Peel Sessions album coming out and we've got a farewell single coming out. I'm actually hugely relieved, to be honest. I'm feeling much happier. I don't want to say I've got other projects, because it's such a cliche, but I have. It will be music, I'm not suddenly going to have an acting career."

The Radio 1 Sessions is coming out on the 29th of October through Strange Fruit, though the release date of the single is not known.
