Porno For Pyros announce reunion for Lollapalooza livestream

Porno For Pyros will reunite for the first time in 24 years during Lollapalooza’s livestream.

Announced today, the reunion is part of the festival’s forthcoming livestream, which will take place from July 30 through August 2. The stream will include a slew of archived and live performances from 150 acts. The full streaming schedule will be released this Wednesday (July 29). The whole event will take place on Lollapalooza’s YouTube channel. Elohim, The Front Bottoms, and Metallica are among those on the bill.

Porno For Pyros stemmed from the 1992 split of Jane’s Addiction. The band’s 1993 self-titled debut album peaked at number three on the Billboard Top 200 chart and delivered the Hot 100 single “Pets.” The band followed this up with their 1996 sophomore studio album Good God's Urge. The band would split in 1998.

In recent years, several attempts to have a Porno For Pyros reunion have been made. In 2018, the band was rumored to reunite for Perry Farrell’s Las Vegas project, but nothing happened.
