Major band kannivalism went on a long hiatus in early 2008 due to vocalist Ryo being hospitalized for depression. Their full-length album, which was to be released that year, was postponed until further notice. During this period of inactivity for kannivalism, guitarist kei went on to have a solo career as he didn't want to stop making music while kannivalism was on hiatus.

With a series of many new announcements on their OHP, kannivalism is ready to begin their activities again, now with new drummer mitsuya, previously from BLACK JACK. A new song, life is will be available for download at the mu-mo digital store starting on September 9th, limited to Japan only. A new single, currently untitled, is scheduled for release on November 18th, with no other details available, and a new album, also currently untitled, will be released next year.

In addition to all of these music releases, international publisher Random House will publish a work written by Ryo in which he talks in depth about his illness. Their comeback live will be on December 26th at Zepp Tokyo.
