Hey, we’re in the same boat as you, so stop asking – we don’t know the current status of Tera Melos. Sometimes a band going on hiatus turns into something different and one knows show to push it into the next phase. When life’s always happening, a lot can get in the way. We’re not saying that’s what happened to TM, but if it makes you feel any better, Nick Reinhart himself seems just as unclear on the band’s future.
“I literally don’t even know,” he said on a recent Reddit post, but thankfully this article isn’t about that – it’s about Nick Reinhart’s new Patreon.

Patreon is something we think a lot more people should be looking into, not necessarily as a replacement for anything but certainly as an addition to things like Bandcamp, streaming services, etc.. Sometimes the tiers are really mind blowing depending on how much content an artist has to work with, and Reinhart’s version comes with some serious goodies:
“… there’s early era tera melos full band demos of songs i’d completely forgotten about. one of particular interest- a driving to mt hood demo (unreleased drugs to the dear youth era song) that features jeff worms on guitar, prior to him leaving the band. some guitar only demos, live sets, guitar lessons, a monthly q & a, random odds and ends, behind the scenes stuff and more.”
So whether you’re a hopeful Tera Melos fan or a math rocker with impeccable taste, you’re going to want to head over to Nick’s Patreon page here. It looks like there’s a couple QA’s and Disheveled Cuss sections too, so all in all a comprehensive experience for those of you that know what’s good.
