Confirming rumors which have been circulating for the past few months, bassist Ryan Sinn has announced he is no longer a member of
Angels & Airwaves, the supergroup featuring Tom DeLonge (Blink-182), guitarist Dave Kennedy (Box Car Racer/Hazen St) and drummer Atom Willard (the Offspring/Rocket From The Crypt). Sinn wrote a long missive to
The Army Of Angels fansite, reading in part:
"I recieved a phone call the evening of April 19th that concluded my relationship with Angels And Airwaves. I could go into an entire novel about my opinions of the whole matter and why I was given the axe, but to me, throwing dirt just seems desperate and tabloidial.
All I'll say as to why I was kicked out, the reasons I was given weren't at all honest, and severely hippocritical to the point of abhorrent disgust.
Some of you here have a good sense about what this fan club really is, and the rest of you have been really awesome about taking it upon yourselves to improve things here. If any of you want to spend an additional $30 for nothing, email me and I'll give you an address to send a check"
It is rumored that Matt Wachter,
formerly of 30 Seconds To Mars, will replace Sinn, but that has not been confirmed. The band are currently in the studio working on their follow-up to 2006's
We Don't Need To Whisper.
