La scorsa notte è apparsa su Youtube Triumph, quella che potrebbe essere l’ultima canzone dei WU LYF. Ellery Roberts, leader e voce dei mancuniani, ha infatti allegato al video una criptica nota sotto forma di lettera aperta ai suoi compagni di viaggio:
“Evans/Joe/Tom
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…
X(I’m gonna stay on email so keep in touch.)”
Non è attualmente chiaro se ciò significhi effettivamente scioglimento definitivo, ma pare certo la carriera della band si trovi ad un punto di svolta critico, con la cancellazione della pagina facebook ufficiale a dare vigore ai rumours. Staremo a vedere.
