Girlpool are set to "take a break"

Girlpool have announced they're going to "take a break" after their forthcoming tour dates.

“After 9 years, we have decided to take a break from Girlpool and go our separate ways as songwriters,” the band explain in a statement. “This upcoming tour will be our last one — it will be an ode to the past, a celebration for the future, and something we will pour both of our hearts into completely. We are each other’s biggest fans and always encourage each other to stretch and evolve, whether that means it’s alongside one another or not.”

Girlpool released their most recent album, 'Forgiveness', earlier this year.
