Greg Puciato has publicly addressed his recent departure from metalcore outfit Better Lovers<\/a>, pushing back against fan speculation that drama or tensions prompted the split.<\/p>\n

The group announced earlier on February 24 that they had parted ways with Puciato, writing: “Better Lovers is parting ways with Greg Puciato. We’re proud of the work we’ve done together but we are moving in another direction\u2026 The four of us are finishing writing a new album\u2026 currently looking for a new singer.”<\/p>\n

In response, Puciato emphasized a positive parting, posting on his Instagram: “NO BAD BLOOD. EVERYONE’S COOL. DON’T SPECULATE. LOVE THESE PEOPLE AND LOVE THE BAND. ROOTING FOR THEM ALL COLLECTIVELY AND INDIVIDUALLY. THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR MAKING THE LAST FEW YEARS SPECIAL. LONG LIVE THE FROG\u201d<\/p>\n

Later, after continued fan theories, he expanded on Instagram: “SOMETIMES THERE ISN’T MORE TO THE STORY. EVER THINK OF THAT? HOLY SHIT WHAT A THOUGHT\u2026 SOMETIMES PEOPLE SAY OKAY HERE’S WHERE I WANNA GO, HERE’S WHAT I WANT, SOMEONE ELSE CAN WANT SOMETHING ELSE\u2026<\/p>\n

“THE MOMENT WILL ALWAYS BE THERE IN MEMORIES AND IN SONGS. AND SOMETIMES, IN CARTOON FROGS\u2026 @jordanfrombuffalo @mitchbhavin @qooseshoes and @willputney ARE ALL S-CLASS PEOPLE. PLEASE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THEM. @betterloversband”<\/p>\n

Better Lovers hasn’t said much else, but why would they? Puciato seems hellbent on defending himself from criticisms, and everyone else in Better Lovers doesn’t seem to be the target.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
