Stapleton Split
schown by Stu Chown April 21st, 2003
Scottish indie-emo types Stapleton have split up.

Glasgow's Stapleton have decided to call it a day, for now. Bassist Ian Arthur has said that after "5 years of no-one giving a shit or taking notice" he and his bandmates, guitarist Al Paxton and drummer Gordon Farqhuar, have decided to give up the band.

The trio will regroup soon to discuss plans for the future, and Arthur remains hopeful that there's still life in the group yet.
