well here it is.. copy and paste..

This was definitely horrible news to wake up to.
meth. has announced via their official mail magazine that their bassist Yuya will be leaving the band on June 7th. The reason is that they are having a difference in opinion on the musical direction of the band and they therefore came to the conclusion that he should withdraw.
They apologize to everyone who has been cheering on the band and everyone connected to them. They also mention that they do still plan to continue on with their summer tour and the release of their newest mini-album, so please keep on supporting them.
There’s new news yet on what Yuya will do as far as music is concerned after the 7th, but they do ask that you watch over him warmly.

EDIT: Shiki has updated the meth. blog, so I thought I’d just include a couple of the things he said there. He says that Yuya is NOT leaving due to being on bad terms with the other members, but they feel that they can’t go on being together in the band and still remain friends.
Well, I can sure say I did not see this one coming. Definitely disappointing.
