Black Tide have reunited after previously breaking up back in 2016. The group made their return with a cover of Thin Lizzy‘s 1976 hit single “The Boys Are Back In Town” this month. A music video for that rendition has newly gone up online. Meanwhile, Black Tide vocalist/guitarist Gabriel Garcia said of this comeback:
“‘Back to the roots’ means going back to where Black Tide truly began.
It started with just me n my brother Raul writing songs as kids.. We built this music dream together and we’re picking it back up.
This chapter is about honoring that core and letting the music lead again. No pressure, no expectations — just creation.
We’re also absolutely open to bringing in the other OG members and have been in talks with them! Let’s build this thing back up together & see where we can take it.
Original music, live shows, and more all in the works! LOOK OUT–Gabe“
Black Tide first made waves early on as a then teenage metal band, landing a deal with Interscope Records and a subsequent spot on the ‘Ozzfest‘ tour — a situation in which their age presented challenges in being able to perform in select markets due to the festival featuring Jägermeister as a sponsor.
