Toronto, Ontario's Crush Luther has called it a day. The band announced the breakup via their MySpace blog, stating:

We've decided to call it a day. Crush Luther is breaking up. Our band is breaking up. Yeah. It's really strange to say that out loud. Or type. Same diff. no foul. Matt, Luther and I have spent a lot of time together discussing our options. To be honest, a month ago, none of us expected that this would be happening. Unfortunately after much time spent, that's where we're at. We're just not in love with the idea of keeping the band alive enough to continue on.The 5 of us had tons of amazing times together - between touring, recording, rehearsing and hanging out. I don't think any one of us would trade what we've been lucky enough to do for anything!

The band was signed to High 4 Records, run by Vicky and Darrin (Goldfinger) Pfeiffer. Final shows are expected to be announced in Southern Ontario this December.
