The HAARP Machine Lose Singer, Drummer & Bassist
The HAARP Machine have seen a mass exodus of members with vocalist Mike Semesky, drummer Alex Rudinger and bassist Ollie Rooney all jumping ship. The following group statement was sent out by Semesky early this morning regarding their exit:
“Due to irreconcilable personal differences with our guitarist Al Mu’min, the three of us (Alex, Ollie, and I) have decided to part ways with The|HAARP|Machine This was in no way an easy decision to make but the three of us feel that it is in our best interest to pursue other musical endeavors at this time.
We would like to thank all of our fans, our friends and families, Sumerian Records, and everyone else who supported our band along the way. Rest assured that the three of us are in no way giving up on our music careers and we’d encourage you all to follow our individual YouTube channels to keep up with our tunes while we are in pursuit of our new musical homes.
Take care and thank you for reading,
Mike, Alex, and Ollie

Well that didn’t last long. Too much focus on custom guitar necks and re-tracking solos?
So much for The HYPE Machine.
bummer
Um, I’m not too knowledgeable of band dynamics, but wouldn’t it have just been easier to kick the guitarist out? Kinda sad if you give up in a 3-against-1 fight.
Depends on who has control of the IP, which I’m assuming is him. The Coon usually doesn’t get kicked out of Coon & Friends.
Mint Berry Crunch!
Nope. He wrote all of the music and all of the lyrics, while the drummer for example didn’t perform on their only album. The guitarist also was the guy who got the band signed, most of them joined afterwards.
maybe if they spent more time playing shows than producing promo videos this could’ve been avoided. not that i care; just sayin.
the HAARP Machine? more like the FAART Machine. Seriously though, who gives a shit.
no pun intended.
I especially appreciate this comment.
