Metal Church have issued the following update:

"To all of our fans and friends... We regretfully announce that Metal Church is calling it quits. The performance at Rocklahoma will be our last show. We have had to cancel the shows scheduled for August and that, among other things, has led us to have to make this decision. There has been far too much frustration and disappointment in trying to keep moving forward. The collapse of our record company, SPV, has made it next to impossible for us continue in any kind of professional manner due to lack of tour support. This decision was not made lightly. We do have unfinished business in the studio, and with any luck we will have something that will be of interest to Metal Church fans in the near future. We would like to thank all the fans that have stuck with Metal Church through all these years, the line-up changes and the ups and downs. We can't tell you how much your support has meant to us, we appreciate each and every one of you. It's been a great ride."

Metal Church vocalist Ronny Munroe has uploaded a couple of new solo demo tracks to his MySpace page.

Commented Ronny: "While Kurdt [Vanderhoof; guitars] and Jeff [Plate; drums] are gearing up for Trans-Siberian Orchestra, I kept myself busy this morning with Steve at Head Change Studio in San Francisco. I was recording a couple demo songs Rick Van Zandt [new Metal Church guitarist] and I have written. I am thinking about putting them on my solo album. These are just rough recordings with a drum machine so it is what it is but I would love to hear thoughts."
