The Minneapolis outfit will perform their first show in nearly two decades next month in the US, before heading across the Atlantic to bring their noise back to this side of the pond.

Drummer Lori Barbero said in a recent Rolling Stone interview that the "second time’s the charm".

Kat Bjelland (vocals/guitars), added "It was brought to my attention that not only do we have a lot of diehard fans from back in the day, but also a whole new generation of kids - my son Henry included - that were eager to see us live. I felt some kind of obligation for them to see us, too. But mainly, I just missed my girls and the feeling that comes from playing with them... visceral live therapy."

Bassist Maureen Herman finished with an upbeat caveat: "The first time we played together again we weren’t sure what it would be like. After knocking the hell out of "He’s My Thing" on the first try, we knew this was going to be fun - and it was going to rock like a motherfucker."
