Canadian indie rock megaband Wolf Parade are about to take a break. Onstage in Toronto on Friday night, co-leader Spencer Krug said, "This is the last show we'll play for a long time," as Spinner reports. Other co-leader Dan Boeckner told Wolf Parade's fan site that the band is taking an "indefinite hiatus" after "a few shows" next year. Sub Pop, Wolf Parade's label, confirms that this is true.

Time will tell whether this will be an endless At the Drive-In-style hiatus or more of a Deerhunter one, where they'll return to making music before much of the world notices that they've been away. But the members of the band have always had a ton of other projects going. Boeckner tells Spinner that Handsome Furs, his other band, will record a new album in January.
