The Ghost of A Thousand have announced they are splitting up.
The band posted the following statement:
"After nearly 7 years of being a band we have decided to call it a day. It’s been increasingly difficult to commit ourselves to a touring band and unfortunately ‘real life’ has finally gotten the better of us. We know there’s been rumours for a while and we’re sorry that we haven’t commented sooner but to be honest, we were hoping that things would work themselves out. But our situation hasn’t changed and we are extremely devastated to finally end it.
We’ve had an amazing ride and made dreams come true, so we would like to thank everybody who’s helped us along the way, whether you’ve booked us for shows, giving us a floor to sleep on, fed us, toured with us or done anything to keep the band on the road, we’re grateful to the lot of you and hope to see you soon.
Most importantly we would like to thank all our Fans, Friends and Family who supported us over the years. We really couldn’t have done it without you guys so, from the bottom of our breaking hearts - thank you!
Much Love
The Ghost Of A Thousand"

Alter The Press! Presents: Wolves At Heart
Tracks like 'Why Did I Even Come Here?' and 'It’s Time To Go Home' are instantly favorable and use the standard pop-punk characteristics to their very best, result in Wolves At Heart being a very promising and exciting band.
For Fans Of: New Found Glory, Yellowcard, Fireworks, The Starting Line, and Man Overboard.
Alter The Press: Why should Alter The Press! readers check you out?
Wolves At Heart: We play honest pop punk music. There's really not much that I can type here that would better describe what we are about than by seeing us live and deciding for yourself. There's a ton of bands trying to do this kind of thing, and we can all tell from hearing the first verse of a song which ones really mean it or not. We're not trying to be something we're not, we play what we are, and make the music we'd want to hear, and I think anyone that has met us can support that.
