No, The Antlers aren’t breaking up (apparently)

“We’ll surely be back when the time is right.”

The Antlers have denied rumours that they’re on permanent hiatus.

The gossip spread online after a fan asked how long their break would last, to which the band replied in a now deleted Tweet: “probably forever, sorry dude…”.

But thankfully they’ve since backtracked, with Pitchfork reporting the following statement:

“Wanted to give a clarification on a confusing tweet from earlier. As we announced in 2015, the band’s on an extended break while we individual Antlers pursue other projects. While we don’t have immediate plans to make new music, we’ll surely be back when the time is right. Sorry for the false alarm.”

The Antlers’ most recent album, ‘Familiars’ was released in 2014.
