Stone Roses guitarist John Squire has revealed that the band have broken up once again.
In conversation with The Guardian, Squire didn't mince words when he was asked if it was the end of the Stone Roses, simply replying, "Yeah." He also acknowledged a pact made with frontman Ian Brown to not discuss the band's dissolution, telling the publication, "I'm going to honour that."
Squire, who was being interviewed about his visual art, said interviews usually feature "a couple of questions about the work, then they get down to the serious business of finding out what the scoop is on the band."
Reflecting on his time with the Roses, he said, "It was quite a brief period that gets a lot of attention still. I was surprised at the level of support we got when we got back on stage."
