The Rapture have quietly broken up. News of their breakup spread through a press release for the Red Bull Music Academy's tribute to William Onyeabor, which referred to the dance band's frontman Luke Jenner as "formerly of The Rapture." Their split was later confirmed by their label manager at DFA who told self-titled Mag, "I kept thinking it might blow over but that might not be the case. Feel free to go to press with this headline: ‘Did the Rapture Break Up and Not Tell Anyone?’” Revisit our 2011 feature on The Rapture.
