Todd Marriott of I Was A Cub Scout checked in with fans on their blog at MySpace on Friday (June 5), announcing that the British synthpop duo, also featuring William Bowerman, is splitting up. Todd writes:

Hello friends,

Here it goes. Tonight we have decided that I Was A Cub Scout has and must now come to a close.

We have had countless problems over the past year or so and with yet more occuring, we feel it best to end on what would seem like a decent note.

We will be honoring all of our UK shows of which we have confirmed. With the iTunes Festival at Koko with Death Cab For Cutie on July 14th being our last.

We will speak more of it all soon, but for now we must tour.

It is a very sad day for us
Thank you

I Was A Cub Scout sent out the following message to their MySpace friends (@iwasacubscout) on Monday (November 26):

Hello all!

Just an update from the world of IWACS!

The last week has been real cool. Last Sunday we did the new video for ‘Pink Squaresm’ and from what we have seen, it looks amazing. Thank you to Bugsy and Ross at One in Three.

We then went off into Europe on Monday to start the Minus The Bear tour. We have sessioned Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg and played in Germany last night, before one more week in Germany, and then back to sunny UK!!

The Minus The Bear boys are real nice and we are having such a fun time watching a bad of this caliber every night.

If you have come to the shows, thank you! It’s always nice to see that a few people are familiar with what we are doing.

I hope everyone is well, details of UK tour and States visit coming soon!

William and Todd
