After getting back together only six months ago, British thrashers Slammer announced on their Facebook page that they have once again called it quits, citing "family health care commitments" as well as logistical issues as the reasons. The band first broke up back in 1992 after having released only two albums, The Work Of Idle Hands... (1989) and Nightmare Scenario (1991).

A statement from the band reads as follows: "Good morning. We have some bad news to tell unfortunately. Due to unavoidable family health care commitments we are very sad to announce that Slammer are unable to continue with any future plans to play live. So it is with great regret we have to announce that the band will cease with immediate effect. We would like to sincerely thank everyone who has shown their support on here since the relaunch was announced and also everyone who made it to the gig last month. We have been overwhelmed with the response from people and it has been far and above anything we could have expected after more than 30 years. We are sorry to disappoint people so soon after reawakening their interest but it is imperative at this time that we allow the band members concerned to put family health first above all else. Please respect this decision and give us the space and privacy needed at this difficult time. There are no plans to release merchandise in future so any requests for it will go unanswered. We simply cannot deal with anything like that right now. Once again we thank you all for the unexpected level of love and support shown to us so far. It means more than we can accurately explain and it always will. Look after yourselves!"
