Classic / #1 Fan Dear Hovercraft: Please Reunite
Posted by Dave Segal on Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 5:23 PM
With everyone from Swervedriver to fIREHOSE to your dad's old boogaloo combo reuniting, I got to thinking of bands I'd really like to see make a comeback... such as '90s Seattle space-rock group Hovercraft. I spilled my guts out about Hovercraft in this 2009 Line Out post, and I still mean every word. I still think they would have the special chemistry that made their two albums (Akathisia and Experiment Below), Hovercraft 10" EP, and live shows such profound mindfucks. Come back, Hovercraft, and play the next Escalator fest. Show these mofos how it's done.

I saw Hovercraft, foo fighters and Mike Watt on tour together when I was in high school. looking back i guess that was a pretty cool show to see.

I saw Hovercraft support Add n to (x) about a million years ago and they were absolutely amazing. 'experiment below' is one of the only CDs I still have in my collection from that weird period of my life. Would love to see them again.
