Release of three songs on MySpace

On May 8, 2007, the release of three songs from Tantric III on the band’s MySpace was largely overshadowed by Todd Whitener’s farewell announcement on the band’s website, citing feelings of artistic stagnation attributed to the band’s struggle to maintain commercial success. Ferreira later said in interviews that Whitener, as well as other members of the band, had expressed frustration with the label, Maverick Records’, ongoing legal and financial issues. Bruce LaFrance was working with Whitener on a side project, called Interchange and Ferreira’s State of the Art side project which eventually became the new Tantric. LaFrance opted out of State of the Art staying on with Whitener. While the Tantric III album has not been officially released, portions of the album have reportedly been leaked via the YouTube platform.
