Greetings Vektonauts. With sadness we must inform you that we, Blake, Frank, and Erik, are all departing from Vektor effective immediately. It has been a completely incredible 10-ish years that has brought us all around the world and introduced us to so many super generous, passionate, friendly people and produced three albums of which we are extremely proud. Seeing the reception for Terminal Redux in particular after all of the hard work put into it has been very humbling. Sadly we've reached a point where we can't continue with the working arrangement we have, for a number of reasons that we find unnecessary to discuss publicly. There's no big story or drama, people and personalities simply change and drift apart and we've reached our limit.
The three of us are lifer musicians and will continue to be. You'll be seeing us in other contexts, other bands, recordings, tours, and more. Our time in Vektor has been a major part of our lives and parting with that will be a serious adjustment, but ultimately we're excited to see other new ways we can put our ideas to use. We are -hugely- grateful to everyone that came out to shows, picked up merch, listened to the music, showed us a great time and kept us going. We accomplished more than we ever thought was possible when we joined and we hope you'll stay tuned for what we do next - you have certainly not seen the last of us.
We don't know if this means Dave will seek new members and continue Vektor or not, that is for him to decide and announce in his own time.
Given that it's the holidays and the future of the band is out of our hands, we'd appreciate some space for the time being as we enjoy time with friends and family (please don't message our personal pages about it, we won't reply). All the best and we'll see you down the road.
-Blake, Frank, and Erik

I wouldn't assume this is the end of Vektor necessarily. I mean the one dude left is kinda the main guy isn't he?

According to what Dave just posted, Vektor is not ending.

"I appreciate everything that Blake, Frank, and Erik have done to help this ship take off. I also appreciate all of my band mates before them: Willy, Pablo, Adam, Mike, and Kian."

Phasers set to "passive aggression".

That's sad news but there are already other bands with very similar sounds around: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwlGvwE ... KiuRSdcluo

Bets are placed on Vektor B.C., Vektor of Fire and I Am Vektor

I agree that probably the problems came out in the long tour.
I fear that the fact that the band will go on with a single member will impact even more negatively the already spastic songwriting... wich is the only issue that i have with their music: their riffing ability is hard to deny

This is really devastating news. Unless Dave wrote literally everything I doubt they can release another album as good as Terminal Redux again. The album definitely grew on me but there is no doubt that they have some immense talent just from giving it one listen through.

I can understand that everyone has different tastes, but @SlevinKelevra and @Diamhea, pray tell what thrash album did I miss this year that topped Terminal Redux?

I don't particularly care about this discussion, but I found Ripper's Experiment of Existence to be better than Terminal Redux. I also liked Vektor's previous album better than Terminal Redux.

All quite possible names, but my money's on Vektor ft. David DiSanto the Original Member.
