Probably my second favorite band in the world, the pillows, recently announced their disbanding at a show in Yokohama 2 weeks ago, after 35 years of activity. it was revealed to the public in a statement put out by their record label on the 1st, reading:
"To all fans of the pillows, Thank you for always supporting the pillows. This is a sudden announcement, but the pillows officially disbanded following their show at KT Zepp Yokohama on January 31st. The members sincerely thank all the fans for their constant support over the past 35 years. These years have been a truly memorable journey, and it’s all thanks to the fans. The band hesitated to use the word “disbanded,” as it is a strong term. However, they decided to use it rather than leave room for expectations of a future reunion. The members are deeply grateful to the fans who valued their music and supported them throughout their career. They hope to meet the fans again through their individual activities in the future. Thank you once again for supporting the pillows for 35 years."
Even though i've only been a fan for a few years, I'm still devistated.
One of my bucket list goals was to see them live someday. Last show? I'm flying to Japan no matter what it takes. I guess I need to take that off now...
I really hope some sort of tribute band forms, atleast in the US, that I would hear about
Thank you, the pillows.
