Murder By Death is ready to go six-feet under for now.

After 25 years on tour and nearly a dozen albums, the indie-rock sextet has one last studio LP, the Kickstarter-success Egg & Dart, to share with fans before calling it quits to take a breath.

“The [band] that I have right now is such a wonderful group of people. I think we just really get how to tour together and hang out, which is ironic that it’s also when we’re calling it a day,” frontman frontman Adam Turla recently told Westword. “I wanted to leave the touring life behind me while I was still having fun with it.”

Tickets to see Murder By Death play Tampa Orpheum on Monday, Nov. 10 are still available for $47.48.
