Bad news, guys. There had been rumours lately, but now we have a statement from Mew:

“After 20 years playing together in Mew, the band and Bo Madsen have decided to part ways for the time being. At present the rest of us will continue with Mew. We are happy to tell you that guitarist Mads Wegner will be joining us on our upcoming shows, and we look forward to seeing you all out there.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

–Jonas, Johan and Silas.”

Serious business, pancakes.
