A true shame in the Monuments camp, on the 9th of August the band performed to a sold out Peel in Kingston for drummer Mike Malyan’s last ever show with the band.

At their last performance at Tech Fest the band were unable to perform with singer Chris Baretto due to vocal injuries and now it seems that Mike Malyan has indeed stepped down.

Uploading a touching video the drummer has announced that a former injury from which he has never really recovered from is the reason for his exit from the band. A big shame as the band lose a fantastic drummer, though at least everything is on good terms and we can only wish Malyan the best of luck in all of his future endeavours!

You can watch the video below of his goodbye, now go and all blast some of The Amanuensis!
