Swedish hardcore punk outfit Refused have announced two UK dates following the announcement of their reunion at the start of the year.
The extreme outfit, who were popular throughout the 90s, have finally returned after a 14 year break and will perform two special shows in the UK following a summer packed full of festival appearances.
You can catch Refused at London’s HMV Forum on August 12th, whilst fans in Manchester will be able to catch them two days later on the 14th in the O2 Academy. Tickets for the shows go onsale next Friday (June 15th) – stay with Stereoboard to find yourself the cheapest tickets.
Refused were originally formed in 1991 and released three albums during their seven-year career. Most notable of these was their final album, 1998’s ‘The Shape of Punk to Come’, which is widely-considered to be one of the most groundbreaking hardcore albums of all time. However, the band split up during the year of its release.
Speaking of their decision to reform, the band said: “It's been a motley 14 years since our band came apart. We've all kept busy in our respective endeavors but we've all remained friends and kept in touch. There have been offers, and lots of jokes about these offers. A reunion has just seemed irrelevant to us.”
