Photo by Steve GullickSome 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.

Oddfellows, their new albu...

When everyone’s schedules are clear enough, the former Faith No More/Mr. Bungle gibber/scream master Mike Patton gets together with Melvins’ Trevor Dunn, the Jesus Lizard’s Duane Denison, and Battles’ John Stanier to make viciously seesawing rock music as Tomahawk.

Around the time Faith No More broke up, Mike Patton started a new band with a particularly burly and vicious lineup: Melvins’ Trevor Dunn, the Jesus Lizard’s Duane Denison, and Helmet’s John Stanier, who would later become the best part of every Battles show. Tomahawk has been largely inactive since 2007, but they&a...
