malachi constant a constant no more

It is with regret that i pass on the news of Malachi Constant's passing. Hereafter is a note from Carl Wedoff ...

September 2, 11:51 pm

To whom it may concern:

After a sometimes fruitful seven-and-a-half year existence, Malachi
Constant has quit playing. No blow-out last show or anything, it was high
time to call it off. So that's that. When bands start spinning wheels and
stop having good times, it is proper to move on. Our first show was February
12, 1999 in the basement of Dupre Hall on the Macalester College campus. Our
last show was August 30, 2006 at the Triple Rock Social Club with Hockey
Night and Curtains. We released six albums in the interim: Incitement to
Discourse, Newspeak, Challenger, Zenith, Infinite Justice, and Pride. We
toured five or six times. I'm not sure which.

Thanks to everyone/anyone who liked us and helped us out; we met and
surpassed the modest goals we set out for ourselves as teenagers, and we
have audiences, press, radio, bar owners, teen maniacs, etc. to thank.
Malachi Constant was shown a surplus of excitement and kindness; we
apprecitate it more than words can express. It was quite the formative
experience.

In the future, be sure to hear from us. Ours are active musical lives;
we overflow with ideas and ambition.

Love always.

Carl / Malachi Constant.


I'd like to point out that their entry on MinneWiki already indicates that they've broken up. She moves so fast, this web of worldwideness.
