I'm not sure if I'd consider that bad news... The band released a new must have in their catalog that, imo, is much better than anything released on Geffen. The definitely came down in quality as time went on on a major label, but luckily they're back at their finest. Have you ever heard any SYR releases? Last year they released something with Merzbow that was definitely one of my favorites, that marked following SY again for me.
