Another Day, Another Reunion: Shudder To Think Reunites

In a move that probably shocks no one, but likely pleases some of you, Shudder to Think is following up a February appearance at a Barack Obama fundraiser with a smallish tour this summer that starts at the Virgin Mobile Festival in Baltimore and works its way across our fine nation to San Francisco's Fillmore. I would regale you, the reader, with a number of Shudder to Think videos from the band's Epic Records era, but as those videos (including the splendid "X-French Tee Shirt") are property of the embed-hating Sony/BMG, I've placed a clip of Craig Wedren performing "Suffragette City" with Of Montreal above. I hope you're happy, Sony, because I'm certainly not. [Billboard]

After watching the video, I forgot just how much money the record companies were just throwing at any alternative bands to find the next Nirvana. Of course it got me to buy their album (which is brilliant, and everyone should track it down.)

yeah, even my soft adolescent mind could tell this was a few clicks to the left of what was referred to as "alternative rock" at the time. x-french tee shirt and hit liquor led to me buying the album in a bargain bin, which was, among a few other bands and records, the start of me listening to stuff. like, listening to any stuff at all.

Yeah, I've been excited for this since they were announced on the bill of the Virgin Fest a couple months ago, definitely one of my main reasons to go to it this year. I actually just bought Get Your Goat today in anticipation.

Great Band! "First Love, Last Rites" is a cool soundtrack. You can still get most of their stuff on Dischord's website.

I have no idea why Stuart isn't involved. I'm glad Adam is involved to an extent.
