Khuda to release final album

Posted in Splits on January 21, 2013

Two-piece Khuda have announced a final album before they cease as a band. The record is being recorded by Pedro Mendes in Leeds, and the band has announced a final show in the same city set for February 9.

They offer a lengthy press statement as well, summarized below.

Our last few years have been intense, we've played over 400 shows, put out 2 records, met some of the greatest and kindest people in the world, and seen many beautiful places... this has resulted in our music and live performaces adopting the same intensity and excitement that both of us as individuals have been experiencing. We both feel like this is something that can't and shouldn't ever be faked. We now live in different countries, many miles apart and for the first time as a band we dont have the opportunity to tour and practice regularly... which for us, and we've worked over the last few years, means that our intensity and work ethic that has really created and driven the band has been lost... Of course we do have the option to continue, tour less frequently, for shorter periods, ask more money for shows to make up for the distance and extra costs and hope that the limited practicing time we have is enough to play a decent gig... but that just doesn't feel right at all, and neither of us are particularly comfortable with that idea.

Khuda released Iecava in 2011.
