The Amity Affliction release statement regarding status of Ahren Stringer

The Amity Affliction

The Amity Affliction took to social media to inform fans the status of Ahren Stringer. Stringer, who has been with the band since the creation back in 2003, will no longer be a touring or recording member of the band.

 

We are aware our fans have been waiting for us to comment on the situation between Ahren and the band. 

This will be our only statement. 

We have been choosing to stay silent until now, as we wanted to handle this privately with respect to all involved. Unfortunately, it has become clear to us that this is no longer possible and we owe it to you, our fans, to comment. 

Ahren will no longer be touring or recording with The Amity Affliction.

We acknowledge that we have all had our fair share of issues over the years. But sadly, over time the relationship between Ahren and the band has completely broken down while he has been dealing with challenging elements of his personal life. 

The band have had to cancel tours and pass on many opportunities in hopes of supporting Ahren, but moving forward we find it impossible to continue to tolerate certain behaviours that have been directed at ourselves and those close to us. Ahren has made it very clear on numerous occasions that he does not enjoy or want to continue touring.

We still have a lot to give as a band and we're excited to continue touring and sharing new music with you. We also understand that we need to prove ourselves to you all, and thank you for sticking with us.

The music we've created with Ahren will forever bind us and we are thankful for the good times we had together. We wish Ahren all the best in his personal and professional future.

We look forward to seeing you all on tour.

Joel, Dan and Joe

Who can blame him. I'd also be doing fentanyl on the regular if I had to play in that shitty ass band

Unfortunately had to sit through these guys last year and it was pretty clear the dude wasn't even playing bass and just doing air guitar to a backtrack. He also couldn't sing. What exactly did he do in the band?

What exactly did he do in the band? I saw them at a festival last year and he was 100% singing. Although he didn't look like he wanted to be there.

Why are they using the law and order font for the statement

anonymous 39 days ago

Maybe they'll finally get a bass player who can actually play bass

anonymous 39 days ago

Maybe they can release a statement regarding who the f*ck they are next, and then another explaining why anybody should give a f*ck.

He was a large portion of TAA writing, good luck there. He has a fancy of making heavy hooks sound poppy yet still tasty Sorry Joel but is it still TAA.? Not in my eyes
