Afghan Whigs

Sine their recent reunion, the Afghan Whigs have been more visible than they were during their celebrated '90s run.

Jools Holland's TV show boasts the best-sounding studio for live music.

While we patiently wait for the release of the Afghan Whigs' first album in 16 years to be released, the band was thoughtful enough to share the first video for the album, 'Algiers.'

The xx do a fantastic version of Aaliyah’s 1997 single ‘Hot Like Fire.’ It’s an aching slow jam about delayed sexual gratification, and backed by sparse, echoing guitar and bass that can truly be said to throb, Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim sing with hushed anticipation about how great it’ll be to finally get each other’s skinny jeans off.

We always knew the Afghan Whigs were huge R&B fans. We even knew that frontman Greg Dulli can play the soul man role if his heart's in it. Last night at the South by Southwest music festival, the Whigs shared the stage with one of R&B's young princes: Usher.

The Afghan Whigs are just a few gigs into their first tour in 13 years, and as fans scour the Internet in search of clues as to which Whigs delights frontman Greg Dulli and the band will be playing live, they also get a taste of the various surprise covers that are in store. Dulli has always been big on performing covers live, and so far this latest trek is no different.
