Guitarist Rob Brewer has exited Unwritten Law due to "a number of volatile circumstances involving disputes between Rob and various band members, as well as interaction between Brewer and the fans," according to a Lava Records statement. The band will continue as a four-piece band.

"It was an incredibly difficult decision, albeit the right thing to do given the recent circumstances," vocalist Scott Russo said in the statement.

The group, set to support on Sum 41's upcoming tour, will hit the road as scheduled.
