Babes In Toyland: Youtube Mix

• 15th May 2015

After a come-back LA show in February, legendary punks Babes in Toyland are getting ready to play their first UK tour for the best part of two decades, kicking off next Sunday in Bristol.

The band previously announced that teen grunge duo Skating Polly will be joining them for the full tour, and this week they have confirmed that PINS have been added to the Shepherd’s Bush Empire show on May 26th.

To whet your appetite, we’ve put together a playlist of Babes in Toyland web highlights, featuring Tom Morello, John Peel, Reading Festival & much more.

“It was brought to my attention that not only do we have a lot of diehard fans from back in the day, but also a whole new generation of kids–my son Henry included– that were eager to see us live,” explained singer/guitar player Kat Bjelland in a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine. “I felt some kind of obligation for them to see us, too. But mainly, I just missed my girls and the feeling that comes from playing with them–visceral live therapy.”
