Band Announce Split!

Before anyone had heard of Oasis, a four-piece from Wigan called Verve were becoming a religion to their fans in the UK and around the world. Richard Ashcroft and friends blazed their way through two albums and some legendary tours before finally imploding in the Summer of '95.

While they were away, The Verve were kept alive in the hearts of the faithful - not least on the official mailing list. And in time the band inevitably found themselves together again - after all, they still had to convince everyone else they were the best band in the world.

With third album Urban Hymns, and a series of sell-out gigs around the world, The Verve did just that. But it was always a volatile combination, and with the band's latest split the epic story appears to be over. For now...

The band themselves were behind the creation of the ultimate Verve Site, a huge archive of everything the band have made and done, going back to the earliest days. It's got everything you want to know.

COME ON!
