https://www.metalsucks.net/2022/10/20/bummer-the-sword-call-it-quits/ I feel like while this is disappointing, the quality of their albums decreased over time. Age of Winters and Gods of the Earth were true classics, but they seemed to go down hill after that. Thoughts, gentlemen?

Before I saw what you wrote I was going to write nearly the same sentiment: sad, but nothing much lost.

Never heard anything they recorded, but there are tonz of hard rock/metal bands under that umbrella.

I remember them advertised at Tower Records as a “up and coming” band. Same with Early Man.

They peaked years ago. Oh well. We'll always have Warp Riders to listen to.

Even though their last two albums weren't exactly the direction I was hoping for, I still enjoyed them. We'll see if this plan sticks, as there have been plenty of bands in the past who return. If not, they had a nice run.

You could say that about every band you have never listened to. I don't understand your passive aggressive statement. If you don't like me just be a man and tell me. BOOM!

My statement has nothing to do with you. I know nothing of the band so it doesn't bother me that they've broken up.
