Sing it with me! All I ever wanted/ all I ever wanted/ all I ever wanted was to be your spine! Archers of Loaf, indie rock legends and creators of the greatest song of the 1990s as decreed by me and perhaps only me, have returned as a touring entity. While they made a surprise appearance this past January by opening a show by fellow North Carolinians The Love Language, they now have a full tour planned for later in the year.
Unlike many reunited acts, Archers of Loaf aren’t popping in for a quick couple of dates and then bouncing out. No sir, this tour actually manages to hit pretty much every major region of the United States. Northeast, Midwest, South, and West, they’re all in luck! Locations outside of the US, well, they’re in less luck, but hopefully this reunion lasts long enough for the band to schedule some international dates. While we’re at it, let’s also pray to the gods of indie rock for an Archers of Loaf + Dismemberment Plan power tour.
