I wanted to do a Drawn Together inspired “Now where they at?” where I’d choose a band that’s kind of forgotten, dig up some info and then possibly laugh at them. My laziness sometimes pays off, because I didn’t have to scroll long in my music library, and right under A, I found something — American Head Charge.
If you jump into the DeLorean with me for a second, you’ll remember this band as the one that (somewhat strangely) got lumped with the post 2000 nu metal wave, and that they had more bad luck than people who came early for a Guns N’ Roses show. I am of course, referring to a shitload of band member changes (and the death of their guitarist in 2005), but what shocked me is that completely missing my radar, this band managed to break up in 2009, and actually reunite earlier this year.
I don’t know if I just made your day better or worse (I’m kind of meh since they lost their clown make up a while back, so there’s not much for me to make fun of), but the band is officially back, and as of now, they’re planning a small tour starting in October. You can find more information on their official Facebook page, and you can see two videos that make me think of high school right after you make the jump.
