Formed in 1993 in the home of SXSW; three albums, five EPs and a break up in 2001, At the Drive-In reunited in January 2012. They have played Coachella and Lollapalooza and are flying back via Oz and Japan for gigs and then, lucky for us, Reading and Leeds. Omar admits it鈥檚 purely a "nostalgia thing" so don鈥檛 get your hopes up for a new album.
The last album before break up was Relationship of Command, 鈥榦ne of the most vital albums of the first decade of this millennium鈥� according to NME, and 鈥榦ne of the most important rock records of all time鈥� to Kerrang! It set the bar for every post-hardcore record since. When asked if they plan to get back together, Omar said 鈥榙o you want to get back together with your first girlfriend?... I just shudder at the thought.鈥� This should be a moment to remember!
