Pop Will Eat Itself Reformation

Overview

The band reformed to play their first gigs in 8 years, in Nottingham, Birmingham, and London in January 2005. Many thought this would never happen, as the band had apparently lost all the tapes and disks of samples and backing tracks they needed to perform live. When this material was later found in a friend’s garden shed, they decided to reform. These gigs were notable for their Instant Live albums, whereby ten minutes after the completion of each gig, one could buy a double-disc live album of the performance.
