We’re feeling inspired to continue growing as a unit as we move into this next chapter, and are deeply grateful for everyone with us on this journey.”Today, Arevalo responded, taking to social media to say that while he was “extremely grateful” for the time spent with the progressive-rock outfit, and agreed they should both go separate ways, he felt frustrated at being under-utilised.He reflected on his mental health break from earlier in the year when he pursued a program in Washington, where he studied “emotional issues” and spoke with counsellors.
