The current line-up includes chief songwriter David Line (vocals, guitar), Caroline Banks (drums and backing vocals) and Kevin Penney (guitars) who joined the band following the departure of founder-member Charles Macleod. Bassist and founder member Kevin Hendrick left the group to join PRE following the recording of their fourth album proper Paper Crown King in 2006, he has yet to be permanently replaced. Cahir O’Doherty, from Fighting With Wire and Jetplane Landing has played bass on numerous tours.
In mid 2009 it was announced via the bands myspace page that Seafood does no longer exist as a band, but that each member of the band would continue to work on various side projects in the future.

Noooo! Seafood is dead. I'm so sad... According to their myspace site, the band is over. What a shame... I love this band to no end. It's painful to think they are gone... but when I think back to their phenomenal songs that I've listen to a million times and all the great moments attached to them all there is left to say is: THANK YOU SEAFOOD. Thanks for giving voice to my soul.

All Hail Seafood, anyone else think they just got better with each album? Thinking of updating the wiki-info, already uploaded a much more recent pic. Feel free to "vote it up".

Criminally underrated band - can't understand how they've always gotten critical acclaim yet failed get any wider recognition.

Loved Seafood alongside My Vitriol, early Idlewild and early Placebo years ago. Surviving the Quiet and When Do We Start Fighting are great, even Messenger in the Camp has it's moments, but I thought As the Cry Flows was rubbish. Not heard the latest album yet. Just listened to Signal Sparks - boring.

An amazing band. Not a bad album between the four of them. Impossible to choose a favourite song but I'll go for 'Splinter', 'What May Be The Oldest' and 'Heats Walks Against Me'.
