Red Lights Flash throw in the towel

According to their recent blog post, Austrian punk rockers Red Lights Flash have called it quits. The band had this to say about the break up:

Dear friends, we say good bye!

14 exciting years have passed since we met and found redlightsflash as a very versatile project, both musically and ideologically, which turned out to be way more successful and exciting than we thought. Today, still the same 4 guys, but 4 albums, 65 songs, 14 tours, 700 shows in 18 different countries later, we decided to break new grounds in our lives. We all look forward to these upcoming challenges and projects, but on the other hand it will get impossible to give Redlightsflash – our passion and family – the time it deserves. Recently, we had the chance to play the biggest shows in our history and we have recorded an album, that we simply love – and so we had the feeling this is the best moment to close the book. Or to quote Neil Young´s words: “It´s better to burn out than just to fade away.” The circle closes. We say good bye. The music stays. It all makes sense. So thank you and good night!

The band has also announced two farewell shows featuring political-rockers, Anti-Flag. You can find show dates here.
