The band shared this statement on their Facebook page: "A message from Czral. Some of you knew this, a lot of you didn't. What can one say really? Thanks for all the fish!"
- Einz
"Good evening y'all. Or good morning or afternoon, depending on where you are in the world which is made up of time-zones and landslides. We are now into our 18th year of existance, and as you all know, in 1918, in plymouth, Charlie Chaplin forgot his drivers-license at the chemist's while simultaneously thinking about tunafish and batteries. An odd moment, yes, but it has reminded us (in Virus) that it's time to throw in the towel... It's been 4 full-lengths, a demo and a mini-album and a few handfuls of gigs, plus the odd whale-shark encounter. Einz has become voivod of bulgaria (1155-1299), Plenum has become the prime minister of Equador while simultaneously working as a paediatrician in Ukraine. Czral has become a well known Elvis -and Bret Michaels-impersonator whilst working as a moped-vendor machine-operator in birmingham. So that's why we've decided to lay down our deplorable riffs and beats and bass-lines, rather than being 'on ice, don't know what's happening' -mode, for an unforeseeable future... You know, you can't devour an apple more than three times: the time you buy it, the time you put it on your kitchen-counter, and the time you decide to throw it away because it's gone bad. Only thrice. But I digress.. My point is: at some point, you realise that what you set out to do has now been done, now, so now.. Thank you, bye bye, we were Virus."
Carl-Michael Eide plays in Aura Noir.
Einar "Einz" Sjursø plays in Beyond Dawn.

Man, why does it seem like it's all the better bands breaking up lately... Agalloch, Vektor, now Virus...  Well, very thankful I got to catch them at Roadburn at least, 'twas quite the experience!

They made cool records. Sad to see them go.
