Did The Rapture break up and not tell anyone?

The Rapture

The Rapture have split up in the most furtive way possible, in that they didn’t actually announce it to the public. In fact, the split was only discovered when Self-Titled magazine noticed a solo billing of the band’s one-time frontman Luke Jenner, in which he was advertised as being “formerly of The Rapture”.

Still, the cat’s out of the bag now, after Self-Titled sought out the group’s manager, DFA Records’ Jonathan Galkin, for his word on the situation.

And that word was: “I kept thinking it might blow over but that might not be the case. Feel free to go to press with this headline: ‘Did the Rapture break up and not tell anyone?'”

The Rapture, as you no doubt know, formed in 1998, releasing their sophomore LP, ‘In The Grace Of Your Love’, back in 2011.
