In an e-mail sent to fans in 2003, P.O.D. front man Sonny Sandoval said Curiel left ``to pursue his own vision apart from P.O.D.'' However, Curiel insisted in a phone call from hisSan Diego home that he was kicked out by Atlantic Records management. ``Because of your loyalty and respect, it saddens me to say that Marcos is no longer with P.O.D.,'' Sandoval wrote. ``Never have we imagined P.O.D. without him, but we now know this vision is bigger than the four of us.''
