Jesus Lizard Reunite!

Bollocks_to_Pop · 11.26.2008, 12:58 PM

Hopefully they'll come to the West Coast. From Pitchfork:

"Some ten years after they called it a day, the glorious noise rock clusterfuck they call the Jesus Lizard will reconvene for a series of shows next year. Yep, all of 'em: the classic lineup of David Yow, Duane Denison, David Wm. Sims, and Mac McNeilly will hit the road on what the band's label Touch and Go calls a "fleeting reunion."

The only date announced thus far is an appearance at the All Tomorrow's Parties' "The Fans Strike Back" fest in Minehead, England the long weekend of May 8-10, though we're told things will come crashing down with a grand finale in the band's hometown of Chicago in November.

Come May, the band's first four albums-- Head, Goat, Liar, and Down-- will be released on CD and vinyl in newly remastered form. Bob Weston is heading up that process, with original engineer Steve Albini sitting in."

Cool, so that's Sleep and The Jesus Lizard.

Reunions shouldn't be the no.1 reason to attend a festival, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye out on how the lineup of this one develops.

stu666 · 11.26.2008, 01:18 PM

yes, this is good news.

Derek · 11.26.2008, 01:24 PM

I hope I get to see them live.

I saw them at the end of their original existance and they completely underwhelmed.

Maybe they'll be invigorated after their break.

Toilet & Bowels · 11.27.2008, 05:29 AM

from what i understand things were never the same after the original drummer left, but he's back now

I have to agree. A big disappointment.

You'll regret this in the morning. I always do.

Hah.

It's the tofurkey flavored wine talking.

batreleaser · 11.27.2008, 03:50 PM

Sleep is rew-uniting? Even though Om just split in half? This isn't really that exciting because I really only like the first two Jesus Lizard albums, they got worse as they went on.

Trasher02 · 11.29.2008, 09:53 AM

Fuckin' A I hope I get the chance to see them.
