Confused Hipster Music News

Electro-folk chorale troupe Sarcastic Zombie Pirate announced today that they were officially disbanding as of 3:07 p.m. yesterday afternoon. At least three fans in Cohasset, Massachusetts, wrote to FMR to express their quiet, rage-filled chagrin at the news. Formed in March 2013, Sarcastic Zombie Pirate released the smash hit, Davy Jones' Plums, a syntho-spoken haiku with an ethereal oboe-heavy backbeat. Plums reached #12 on the Obfuscatory Anti-Billboard Charts, a widely respected, but mostly unknown, independent ratings chart that focuses on peculiarly unlistenable music.

Although the reasons for the band's breakup remain a mystery, an anonymous source revealed they informed their agent of the news via this somewhat enigmatic...letter? poem?
The pirate thing was pretty much the worst thing ever.
Yeah, "arggh" haha. We get it.
Oh an eye patch! Nice touch.
Yes, I'll walk the plank. Good one.
No, I won't help you find the buried treasure.
Yes, if only we could find you a parrot for your shoulder.
We just don't want to eat anyone's brains anymore.
No band members could be reached for immediate comment.
