26 May 2015: Returning punk icons Babes In Toyland took to Shepherd's Bush to thoroughly shake up the stage. Check out our awesome, exclusive photos from the gig here.
The riotous trio made their mark on the London venue after reforming. The re-union was apparently down to a love for their die-ahrd, but also their new fans. Vocalist and guitarist Kat Bjelland talked to Rolling stone about the 'whole new generation of kids – my son Henry included' who were begging to see the gand live, and Babes In Toyland felt obliged to deliver.
Mostly, though, what spurred the reform was the band's love of playing together. But mainly, I just missed my girls and the feeling that comes from playing with them – visceral live therapy.'
Whatever the reason, they put on one hell of a show and the audeince was left feeling very grateful.
The band are heading to continue performing with two more dates on the tour:
Wed May 27 2015 - MANCHESTER Gorilla
Thurs May 28 2015 - GLASGOW Oran Mor
The band will also perform at Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona. Tickets are on sale now
