The Verve reunite! http://miikagrady.com/?p=13 http://miikagrady.com/?p=13#comments Thu, 04 Oct 2007 15:56:09 +0000 miika http://miikagrady.com/?p=13 The VerveI can’t believe it. The Verve, yes, the best rock band of the last 15 years, have reunited. Check out The Verve Live for all the news. Finally, I’ll have a reason to go to Virgin Records again.

I know what a lot of people might be thinking. With most band reunions comes fear. Fear that a bunch of desperate geezers will tarnish their musical legacy. That they’re just doing it for the money. Etc, etc. (I thank god that Morrissey had the good sense to never take Marr up on that Smiths reunion. Talk about potential horror shows.) But, with the Verve, they’re just too no-nonsense, and too darn good—I truly believe it’s about the music. I don’t think I’d believe that about any other reunion, and almost can’t believe I’m not more cynical about this one. But, I guess the euphoria that has accompanied this news is dashing away any cynicism.

It’s this simple really: If there is one track on the new album as good as The Rolling People, I’ll feel that my prayers were answered.

Holy crap. Syncing up Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz truly works. I guess my stoney friends weren’t crazy after all. Check it out…
