Its looks as though one of my favorite bands of all time have been brewing up something behind the scenes. If you are unfamiliar with the band Far, you need to educate yourself by going and buying Water & Solutions. Water & Solutions is a record that smacks you around while caressing you at the same time. Not many rock records bring on such an emotional punch like this record.

After asking lead vocalist Jonah Matranga if a reunion was in the works, he responded with, “As I’ve said over the years, whatever happens (or not), the intention will be fun and music. I have no time for anything else.
Also, I will say very little about it, whatever it is…

Far broke up way back in 1998 and haven’t played a show together in 10 years. So stay tuned folks, this could be huge.

(if you download one song from this website, All Goes Down from Far is a must)

    Hmm, hopefully they’ll do a proper tour and not a one off show in Sacto. That’s a bit “far” from me, hehehehe…

    soo exciting. I always liked their 90s grungeish sound (even though you may disagree with me that it sounds like that). Some of my fave jonah stuff. I hope there’s a tour in the works, too.
