Of Machines drummer Brent Guistwite has left the group.

Statement:

“I know it seems like we don’t have our shit together from an outside perspective, but none of you know what goes into this and the things we have to do/deal with on a daily basis. I just want to say that I will be leaving and moving back to Florida to be closer to my family and to pursue other musical endeavors. I know I was only in this band for a short time, but I don’t regret a single second of it. I got to meet and be with some of the coolest dudes all across the country for nearly a month. It had its good times and it tough times, but I wouldn’t trade the experiences we shared for anything in the world. I already have a new music project in the works right now and if any of you care to check it out I will be announcing it on my personal page once we get things going (www.myspace.com/stay_weird). Thank you all for supporting us through everything we do, you guys make this worth doing.”
