New York's Big Ups are calling it a day as they announce a string of US shows to celebrate their career.

Having arrived back in 2010, Big Ups went on to release three albums, including their 2014 debut, Eighteen Hours Of Static, 2016’s Before A Million Universes, and this year's Two Parts Together.

In a statement uploaded to Twitter, Big Ups revealed they'll be taking an "indefinite hiatus" so they can "branch out and grow".

The hardcore group write, "We've had a really great run, a really great time, and we've accomplished all that we've wanted and more."

Good morning RIP to us, Big Ups. Go vote tomorrow (but not for Republicans). Thanks for listening. Photo from January 2012 pic.twitter.com/VKWPNSo1Kf
