In response to a recent wave of speculation, over the weekend, Dan Trapp of Senses Fail confirmed via Instagram that he is no longer an active member of the four-piece, and instead will be focusing his time on the “pursuit of other musical ventures and projects.” You can view the drummer’s official statement by following the jump below.

With the exception of frontman Buddy Nielsen, Trapp had been the last remaining original member of the New Jersey outfit, and had been featured on every one of the group’s releases since their inception in 2002. At this time, the band has not publicly addressed Trapp’s departure or made any mention of a replacement.

Last year, Senses Fail released their sixth full-length, Renacer, which spawned several terrific singles, and eventually peaked at number 15 on the US indie charts.
