Bands From the 90s Reuniting Part 2
We follow up our 2015 episode on bands from the 90s reuniting with more bands, their new material, and who's left from our reunion wish list
Band reunions aren't new, as some of the best-selling and most well-known bands have gone on hiatus or broken up for extended periods of time. Back in 2015, we discussed 1990s rock bands that had broken up and gotten back together. Six years have passed, and more bands have reunited, released material, or at least toured. We decided to revisit the topic and discuss bands like Swervedriver, Hum, The Psychedelic Furs, The Vapors, Guns 'n Roses, and many more who have been back in the studio (either to record or rerecord) and hit the road together. Special guests: Ian McIvor - DMO UNION, Richard Waterman - DMO UNION
Coming Soon
The Wildhearts - p.h.u.q.
Coming soon thanks to a pick by Phil F. we'll be revisiting the 1995 sophomore album p.h.u.q. by The Wildhearts. Be sure to give the album a listen, leave a comment, and vote in our poll. Is this a worthy album, better EP, or decent single?
