Thanks for the post and update. I had wondered what ended up happening with TBR after Ben left, but never followed closely. Its good that they give their fans one last morsel of TBR. I saw them in concert play the Gnarls Barkley “Crazy” cover, which they did a pretty sweet job at. I don’t know if I will end up getting the Covers EP or not …

Totally saw this coming… Ben leaving (or getting kicked out, whatever it was) was the beginning of the end for these guys.

This was the band that got me into Christian rock. I saw a Discovery Download of them on iTunes, enjoyed that song, got their album, found other Christian bands, and the rest is history. Sad to see that they’re gone and I’ll never get to see them live, but I pray they do well on their future endeavors.

I think I saw maybe a week or two ago someone on here posting that they had already broken up, so I wasn’t surprised. And also from the lead singer issue a while back.
Haven’t bought any of their albums yet but I’ll probably start with the EP. Anybody know if there’s a place I can listen to some clips or something before I buy it?

  John – they’re definitely worth buying. Especially their first record.
  And yeah, I was 100% under the impression that they broke up a long long time ago ha. Guess this was just the official announcement. It’s a shame! They were great.

I too was also expecting this when their lead singer left, it was just a matter of time. I’m glad that I got to see them perform at least once

TBR was awesome. Saw them on them at Fish fest and also met them at Creation Fest Tour. I also saw it going downhill after Ben left. I still play Words With Friends on the iPhone against Ben. I have only beat him once =P
