Remy Zero appeared to toy with the idea of reforming in Summer 2006, announcing a possible reunion on their Myspace page - however this has been removed and now reads "We took a break in 2003. We thought momentarily that we might start making music again, but now... who knows. We'll keep you posted here on whatever we're doing - together or separately - as much as we can. Stay tuned..." While this could be taken to mean that they are no longer together, this has not been confirmed to be the case, and the band is still 'officially' together, even if they are not currently recording.


The official site says they are broken up.
