Liv Tyler, who is famous for various reasons, has announced her separation from her husband of five years, Arckid singer/guitarist Royston Langdon. Tyler was spotted without her wedding ring at recent public events, setting off speculation and rampant wishful thinking.
Tyler, of course, was famously given the bad news that her father was not in fact the somewhat cool Todd Rundgren, but actually the remarkably creepy Steven Tyler at the age of nine. Langdon is best known for his previous band, Spacehog, who are not all that bad in retrospect, even beyond their one significant hit, “In The Meantime”.
“Mungo City”, in particular, had the unfortunate timing of not being the one song people remember:
Arckid aren’t too bad, I suppose. Although maybe having your wife’s ex-boyfriend direct your video wasn’t the best idea:
Liv Tyler will be seen in the summer blockbuster The Incredible Hulk, while there were no immediate reports for Langston’s future plans.

FINALLY someone gives Spacehog the faint praise they’ve deserved after all these years. Thank you Idolator!
“In the Meantime” is pretty catchy, but the main thing I remember about Spacehog is this incredibly skanky slut machine-esque girl I was acquainted with bragging about sleeping with both of the Langdon brothers.
What can you say? Arwen’s heart belongs to Aragorn…

Hang on…First you’re writing about staying home in a dress while eating bon bons and watching Maroon 5 on TV…
NOW you’re saying Steven Tyler is ‘remarkably creepy’ while fucking SPACEHOG are ‘not all that bad’???
I gotta go jump out the window.
I’m not touching the Steven Tyler thing, but Spacehog is pretty great. I had that Resident Alien album back in the day, and remember them very fondly.
@owenmeany: Let me know when you jump out that window. I want to sell the footage to that “Scarred” show on MTV.
You’re going to spend time defending Steven Tyler? Really?
we see all 3 of them walking around our west village n’hood - he’s a meansprited douchebag, she’s quite friendly and nice, and the baby gurgles pretty good… ’nuff said.
