The band took a hiatus in 2004, while Palumbo was composing and performing with his new group Head Automatica —which included drummer Larry Gorman—and Beck worked on his band merchandise business. In late 2004, Todd Weinstock, Dave Allen, and Larry Gorman were all fired from the band, fueling rumors that they had split up. The band’s website displayed the phrase “RIP Glassjaw” in the header for a time, though this may have been in jest. The band denied that they were splitting up and cited Palumbo’s ongoing problems with Crohn’s disease as one of the reasons for the hiatus.
