"Malmö, Sweden, November 9, 2011
It is with much regret that we inform you that from December 1st 2011, BAD HABIT will cease to exist as a band name.
As it turns out, the band name BAD HABIT is infringing on the Internationally Registered Trademark for the brand BAD HABITS® which is owned by another band for the US and UK territories and with pending registrations for all EU territories.
At the risk of being sued for trademark infringement, we have no choice but to refrain from using the name BAD HABIT for all future purposes. All existing material will be cancelled/pulled before the above mentioned date.
This of course comes as a shock to the band and record label and at this point in time, it is not decided how the band will move forward after this.
Sincerly yours,
Hal, Bax, Sven, Patrik and Jaime"
