Feted by everyone from Ryan Adams to Jeff Buckley to Red House Painters, the fathers of sadcore have reformed. Having split in 1995 after releasing their seventh album "San Francisco" the time has come for burying various hatchets and getting to grips with unfinished business. The intervening years have seen the band's leader and writer, Mark Eitzel enjoying cult status as a solo performer but those who have been touched by the sheer breathtaking chaotic brilliance of AMC will thrill at this long overdue reunion.

UPDATE: 2008
Current Los Angeles residents, and overall awkward squad, American Music Club release their new album The Golden Age through Cooking Vinyl on February 4. The follow up to their 2004 album Love Songs For Patriots features AMC stalwarts Mark Eitzel and guitarist and father figure Vudi, plus two new musicians who replace both original members Danny Pearson and Tim Mooney who are currently working on other projects. New guys Sean Hoffman (bass and vocals) and Steve Didelot (drums and vocals) are both from local L.A. band, The Larks.
