Arab Strap Split!

Arab Strap have decided to call it a day.

Aiden Moffat and Malcom Middleton have apparently decided to go their separate ways by mutual agreement, reports French website magicrpm.com.

The decision comes ten years after their debut single release ‘The First Big Weekend’, in which time the duo have gone on to release some classic albums.

They will still be releasing their ‘audio rockumentary’ ‘Ten Years of Tears’ through Chemikal Underground on October 23.

The special compilation features a series of demos, B-sides, rarities, unreleased tracks and some of their better known numbers.

Malcom Middleton has enjoyed widespread acclaim for his solo work in recent years, while Aiden Moffat has been working under his guise as L’Pierre.
