"We are working on a NEW release. I wont say its for everyone , but its something we have been wanting to do for a LONG time. We will release more details in the form of MUSIC, since thats really what we do. But in the meantime, an interesting read from TRENT RENZNOR. We have gone from self-released , to Major label bread winners, to tax write offs and back to independenence and this may shed a little light on what being an ARTIST in the music industry today feels like.

Cove Reber Addresses Saosin Departure
Cove Reber has posted a lengthy message addressing his departure from Saosin.Reber said:
"In 2003, I fell in love with a band that not only changed the way that I viewed music, but also inspired me to pursue my dreams. In 2004, the members of that very band that I was madly in love with took a giant risk and gave me, the worlds biggest Saosin fan, a shot. I got to play and make music with my heroes. Even now, Justin, Alex, Beau and Chris are living legends in my mind. It’s not very often that you hear someone say that they had the amazing privilege of working with people they so highly admire and respect.
But all bands have their problems and we were no exception. It all started with one comment directed towards me. That seemingly small comment completely drained every ounce of confidence I had worked so hard to build up. Not only did it completely catch me off guard, but not one of my heroes stood up for me, let alone acknowledged that the comment made was truly uncalled for. Thinking you’ve let your heroes down in even the smallest way really freaking sucks.
I’m sorry if any of you feel ripped off from my live performances- I take that to heart because every night that I get up on stage, I’m doing it for you guys- for the fans who come to our shows and show us support. As far as smoking goes, it’s not something I intentionally hid but it’s definitely not a habit I wanted to broadcast or promote. Let me make this crystal clear, it’s not a cool thing to do. Anyone who says it is “cool” is flat out lying to you. We all have our demons and this is one I struggle with.
For a while now, I had been feeling like it was only a matter of time until my end with Saosin was going to come. I’m just glad I got to sing, write, and record songs with my heroes. For those of you who feel like my role in Saosin was a dominant one, for better or for worse, it wasn’t; every decision we made, we made together. Whether you feel like my departure is positive or negative, I really do wish Justin, Beau, Chris and Alex the best of luck and I will always support them in all that they do.
Now that that’s off my chest, life has been treating me awesome these days. The passion and love for music I felt I had lost is back, my confidence is growing daily, and I really can’t wait to show you all what I’ve been working on. Thank you all for giving me the wonderful opportunity to live out my dream over the last 6 years. It was one hell of a ride, but I truly believe that the best is yet to come."
Saosin Guitarist Comments on Vocalist's Departure
Saosin guitarist Justin Shekoski has made comments via the bands forum, regarding former vocalist Cove Reber.Shekoski posted the following:
"We kicked cove out of the band because his stage performance and vocal performances were on a downward spiral.
We didn't feel he could represent the Music that we have recorded well on stage.
We are not on a record label! Virgin (since that's the label we were on) didnt have anything to do with the firing, they dropped us before it all went down.
We didn't kick him out because he has long hair or because he doesn't look like us haha, I have long hair as well.
And the part about cove being "clean"? This must be a joke. He was the only member of Saosin that smokes cigarettes, religiously. if that's not mind altering enough for you mormons, I have smoked the devils Lettace (weed) with him tons of times. oh, Drinking with cove is also fun I must say. I hope none of you judge him for it because it's his life. Free will. I'm saying this because everyone has their vises and coves not exempt from that list. Either way you can smoke as much as you want for all I care, just as long as your voice sounds great. the problem is that smoking for him is like me warming up for a show by hitting a brick wall with my bare hands.
Listen, all I'm saying is that if you do actualy know cove or the situation, than either you are delusional or you are straight up lying to anyone dumb enough to go on YouTube and actually think you know what you are talking about.
Just try to keep it real.
Party on Garth,
Justin"
Saosin Guitarist Responds To Fans Comments Over Vocalist Departure
Saosin guitarist Beau Burchell has responded to fans comments, concerning the departure vocalist Cove Reber.Burchell posted:
"it has been brought to my attention that my post may have been rude or insensitive. it was not meant to be that way at all. we and cove are all still good friends and on good terms. there was and is no bad blood, etc. sometimes i forget that this message board is not just our little group of people talking to each other about a band. my post wasn't meant to be a press release, and wasn't intended for anyone else except for us on here. the decision was made a while ago, and it felt wrong to keep it from you guys. so please understand that it wasn't meant to be rude."
Cove Reber Leaves Saosin
Saosin vocalist Cove Reber has left the band. Guitarist Beau Burchell made the following announcement:
"well, a few days ago, alex, justin, chris and i got back into the studio for our first group writing/jam session. we have all been writing things on our own, but it was cool to get into a room and play with loud ass amps all together again. i am very excited about this record, for a few different reasons.
1. i have been so busy producing and mixing bands lately, and i love it. finally getting back in the swing of things, so it will be a miracle if i can rip myself away from other projects long enough to finish a saosin record.
2. we have no label, which means we can do whatever we want. we dont have to worry about outputting garbage singles that none of us believe in, or selling records. its going to be nice.. just like the days of ttn.
3. NOT having a camera on me the whole time.
4. after 5 years with cove, we have decided to part ways. so it will be a new experience for us, not knowing what to expect in the vocal dept, who will replace him, or if we will even find a replacement this century.
thats all for now...
beau"

Saosin Pull Out Of Aiden UK Tour
Saosin have cancelled their forthcoming UK dates with Aiden.The band made the following statement:
"We've decided to cancel our dates with aiden in europe this april-may. To be honest, were super bummed, the last time we were in the UK was 2007 with alexisonfire and those shows were awesome. But its just not the right time for us to be over there. I wish I had some elaborate story about members losing limbs while shark diving, but the truth of the matter is, we didn't get a record released In the UK and europe was a lackluster one at best. This is the reality of the times I suppose, downloading, bad business models, and the economy etc. Its all too blame, but the bottom line is, it costs a lot to tour, esepecially overseas, and its never been more important then now, to make sure as a band, that we are touring intelligently and not just because. We hope no one is super mad at us, and promise that once we get a home figured out for the record, we will. Be back and ready to give you the SAOSIN you expect Cheers friends and again, we apologize and hope you understand the circumstances."
