Salem have split. The band had this to say on their website: “Not for the usual reasons of “musical differences” or whatever bands usually say when they break up though. Instead, we have come to the realization that the material we are writing now is so different musically that we are longer that band anymore. In light of this, we have decided to take some time and fully explore ourselves and our music and start a new project, out of respect for the people that made Salem what it was.”
