Founded in 1991, Unwound leveled their small corner of the ’90s punk scene. One of the flagship bands of the Kill Rock Stars label, the band also released material on iconic labels such as Gravity, Troubleman Unlimited, and Matador over their initial 10-year run.
A notoriously relentless touring act, Unwound temporarily ended their endless adventure on April 1, 2002 after a tumultuous year of societal and personal breakdowns and breakups without ever thinking they would return to the musical project. But, in 2012, Unwound began an aggressive reissue campaign with The Numero Group, introducing the band’s extensive catalog to a new generation of listeners, though band members still scoffed at the idea of a reunion. Then came the unexpected passing of bassist Vern Rumsey in 2020 and worldwide isolation during the coronavirus pandemic all in the same year.
Still, in April of 2022, Unwound held its first official practice. Jared Warren, arguably Rumsey‘s original protege as a member of the legendary band Karp and later the Melvins and Big Business came on to fill Rumsey‘s shoes and Nocturnal Habits’ Scott Seckington jumped in on guitar and keyboard. Finally, the band’s long road to a reunion tour is a reality.
