Additional notes
They broke up in 2001 due to what they called a "hostile environment for doom metal bands". They reunited in July, 2005.
They split-up again in March 2009.

"I'm sorry to announce that Grief is no longer playing. We have dis-banded or whatever.
The last show we played was the Wien Arena in Vienna, Austria (I think I spelled those things right).
Our reasons for disbanding are our reasons. We have chosen not to get into it, but it may or may not include the following reasons:
- Jeff has finally become Rip Van Winkle and will be asleep for the next 50 years.
- Ray has finally eaten so much that he cannot fit out of the door to his house and is unable to leave home.
- John has become so death metal that we' d have to actually be ghosts to jam with him and none of us feel like it.
- Eric finally became an actual dog and has not learned how to play bass or do artwork with his paws."
