All three of the tracks on Punk Drunk & Trembling were recorded during the session for last year’s album Boy King. Discussing their decision to break up, the band commented; “The four of us have decided, for our own reasons and in our own ways, that it is now time to leave this orbit. We’re caretakers to something precious and don’t want to have it diminish as we move forward in our lives.”
