Jawbox Announces Reunion Tour After A Decade Away
It appears to be required by law that every indie-rock band of the '90s must reunite at some point. So we might as well see the return of a great one, right?
The sleekly powerful D.C. rock band Jawbox released, 1992's , 1994's and 1996's — before breaking up in 1997. It experienced a familiar trajectory for its time, making its name on a highly respected independent label (in this case Dischord) before signing a major-label deal, grazing the edges of mainstream success (MTV airplay, that sort of thing) and ultimately running out of commercial steam.
