We spent a lot of time looking back whilst compiling the “COLLAPSAR…” album. It kind of felt like a summing up of something, though not intentionally.
As it turns out, with Pete and Jase leaving the band, the album has become a marker point and a great testament to the last fifteen years of that line-up: MUGSTAR Mk.6 (What a resilient beast that line-up proved to be!). We travelled, hooked up with many great bands, had amazing times and made a lot of noise together.
MUGSTAR wish Pete, Jase and their families well for the future – and look forward to hearing new sounds from their individual projects.
Power on… Onward!
