Another one bites the dust?

More upset for fans of the wonderful DeSoto label - not long after both The Dismemberment Plan and Burning Airlines decided to call it a day comes the sad news that the members of Juno have put the band on "indefinite hiatus", with no guarantees about their future.

On a positive note, the band's legacy includes one cast-iron classic - the brilliant A Future Lived In Past Tense, an LP I stumbled across almost by accident. It's an ambitious and arty prog-emo masterpiece (I'm aware that description hardly makes sense and certainly fails to do the record justice).

It's also worth remembering that At The Drive-In went on indefinite hiatus, and just look what rose from the ashes there...
