After years of rumors, innuendo and — most of all — official silence from founding guitarist/vocalist Eddie Glass, Nebula are coming back. It’s been eight years since the release of their last full-length, 2009’s Heavy Psych (review here), and as they look to begin playing shows in 2018, they’ll be two full decades out from their landmark 1998 debut EP, Let it Burn. Last time we heard from Glass was in 2010, at which point, amid a canceled tour, he assured fans via MySpace that the band would continue. Seems fitting somehow that the announcement of their new lineup should come via Thee Facebooks. Age of wonders and all that.
Joining Eddie Glass in Nebula will be bassist Tom Davies, who played on Heavy Psych, and drummer Michael Amster, also of Blaak Heat and Abrams. News about live dates is reportedly coming this Friday. There’s been nothing specific yet revealed for touring or a new release, but new material is allegedly in the works as well.
