No, they played their final show with Mike Benker, their original vocalist. They are continuing without him. You're not the only one who thought they broke up, though...they seem to have promoted Mike's last show in a way that made everyone think it was the band's last show.

Cool! I'm from Farmington, about 90 minutes south of St. Louis. I haven't been to much in the city. I saw Portugal. The Man at the Pageant in May, it was great and the opener's were awesome too although I can't think of their names right now. I've been to a few music stores up there. I play in a band who just got finished tracking and we're going to release an album soon and start looking for shows in the city! Woo! Here's one of our songs.
