    Brazilian electro-trash group CSS (former Cansei de Ser Sexy) have parted ways with their bassist Ira Trevisan for "personal reasons".

    On the band's MySpace, Trevisan said "I decided to move forward and dedicate more of my time to fashion and other projects. Just a big change of priorities, as I will never stop playing music. I am also a bit worried about climate change. People should care more and do something about it. I decided to fly less. CSS will always be in my heart. They said goodbye to their bass player, but they won a new life time fan. In health and sickness, in happiness and so forth. Blah blah blah, so help us God."

    Drummer Adriano Cintra will move to bass duties, and a new, unnamed, drummer who is "a friend of the band" will jump in for live performances only.

    The band's second album will be released in July.

    HOLY SHIT! Is this for real? Was this a breaking news item on Sky News? How the hell are we all going to cope with an event of such magnitude? First 9/11, then the Tsunami, then the Pope dies and now the bassist has left CSS! The end is nigh.I'm taking the rest of the week off as I don't know how I am going to deal with this absolutely devastating news.

    It was on Sky News - opening story, followed by a bulletin about Herbert the Frog who had triplets in a garden just outside Islington.

    I salute Quint's sarcasm- my sentiments exactly. At least she got to visit Ireland about ten times, they never seemed to stop gigging here.

    Heard this on Phantom News this morning (along with the fact that Muse will be playing in a field somwhere - vital stuff that), apparently she claims that she didn't want to keep contributing to global warming by flying everywhere. Freaking do-gooder eco weenies. Maybe someone should remind her next time she's going on her hols? I mean I can understand not liking flying, I hate it too, though not in the Mr. T sense of fear of flying, I just hate airports, but one person not flying just means another cheap ryanair seat for someone else.

    If she felt that strongly, might I suggest a "long way round" style overaland world tour by bus? now that's hardcore.

    Seriously though, what a clown, 24 in a band that are selling records and pulling in cash....making music you like and your the bloody bass player.....aka in building terms the guy who supervises the skip!!

    and the reason for quitting is that flying hurts the environment? someone nick some sambos from her picnic???

    IDIOT.

    ps: is Operator Please a band name? jesus thats terrible.

    Harsh, Parton.

    Maybe she doesn't like the music, maybe she doesn't get on with some of her bandmates, maybe they're tens of thousands of dollars in debt to their record label...
    Her stated reasons don't ring true for me.

    Still though, s**t band.

    She's a woman - they change their mind every two minutes. One minute she wants to be in a band, so she plays in a band, then thinks "I wish I was doing fashion", so she leaves the band.

    Next week it'll be poetry. And I guarantee that'll last 5 mins before she wants to be something else. There's no pleasing them. As Ade Edmonson said "women are only after one thing - I just wish they'd tell me what it is". They would Ade, only they don't know what it is coz they can't make up their flaming minds...

    ... Cue major feminist backlash....
