Well that was a short-lived project.
Last night Manchester indie rock band
Wu Lyf (World Unite
Lucifer Youth Foundation) uploaded a new song to
YouTube, titled "
T R I U
M P H" with a long message where each band member described how this was
the end of the group. With one excellent full length to their name
Wu Lyf will
most certainly be missed if they have in fact called it quits. Listen to “
T R I
U M P H” below and take a gander at each member’s message.
“By the time I wrote this I was all ready gone. You know you
aint got nothing but time, but time isn't an infinite currency I want to see
wasted. If this is our last month living, apocalypse looming, I am not going to
spend my final hours waiting in purgatory. I am done. There is nothing here
that inspires/ interests me beyond the emptiness for dreams. and I don't want
to spend my life asleep; dreaming of a....
Wake up! We stay safe/ everything is golden/ in this place.
WU LYF is dead to me. The sincerity of "Go tell fire" was lost in the
bull shit of maintaining face in the world we live. Clap your hands chimp
everybody's watching. A year spent losing faith; Innocence lost wide eyes see
clear the dark. There's blood running down streets of every city in the world,
what's a song to do, pretend it mean everything/nothing to you. Another
distraction from the world we live. I and I struggle for a based positivity;
Get free or die trying; J C Hung him self up for the easy way out. so Broken
Mama Cita be kind to me.
P E O are P L E the world over. Your beautiful and strange, and I love you. But
The Great Longings calling and I'm young and free enough to try and answer.
Forever

I am gone. This isn't the end. This is the begging.
We done business to be as free as we want to be; I'm exercising this freedom.
Manchester and the life we maintaining is leaving me empty. It is a beautiful/
incredible/ insane world we live and I'm done walking round in baby step
circles in a self involved bubble. WU LYF isn't that important. So go do what
you want to do. If you wanna play together, Play! your talented musicians so
don't waste that. I am bored of the most challenging thing in WU LYF being
deluding myself of its relevance. Dirty free, as that show ended it concreted
my decision that a change has to come. "Be the change you want to
see" said a wise old man.
I'm going to keep on doing what I do; if the time comes in the future where we
all truly want to collaborate on something then that door is always going to be
open; I have nothing but love for you all.
But I want to live life that's true to me.
Stay safe
your Brother from another mother...
