Last week Oceans Ate Alaska shared a quick preview of their upcoming single "Endless Hollow", to which fans noticed the absence of original vocalist James Harrison and instead had Silent Screams' Jay Haywood handling vocal duty. 

This prompted Harrison to release a lengthy statement yesterday hinting that he and another member of the band had decided to leave. In fact Harrison state it was a mistake to even rejoin his former band. You can read the full statement and find out more about that here.

Today, Oceans Ate Alaska released "Endless Hollow" with a statement regarding the drama. In which the band confirmed the departure of Harrison along with guitarist Adam Zythiewicz. The band also noted they have decided to also part ways with their label Fearless Records.

The band shared the following:

Most of you have already guessed it, but we would like to give @joel_heywood the biggest and warmest welcome possible! ✌🏻 Joel is a great friend of the band, an incredibly talented and hardworking vocalist, and will be joining Oceans full time from here on out! Parting ways with James, Adam, and also Fearless Records was a very tough decision to make, but we hope this change has the most positive outcome possible for past and present members. Despite what some people may think, we have nothing but love for James and Adam! We wish them both happiness, health and good luck in their future endeavours. We will always appreciate all of the hard work they put into OAA over the years!

We hope you all love the new track, and hopefully we can catch you at a show this month! Peace and love to you all.
