Don't miss the Gories's return to the theemptybottle this Friday and Saturday! | ✍️ Monica Kendrick
When the Gories emerged in Detroit in 1986, on the tail end of the decade’s garage-rock revival, they seemed to have learned from every mistake made by other bands. They produced a sort of platonic ideal of the form: wild, messy, uninhibited, and fortified with the survival instincts of an alley cat.
Guitarists and vocalists Mick Collins and Dan Kroha and drummer Peggy O’Neill got their start in Michigan’s 80s mod scene and made their full-length debut as the Gories within 1989. They quickly became cult darlings and even drew notice beyond the underground—their second album, 1990’s, was produced by Alex Chilton. By the time they broke up in 1992, they’d created a huge wave of influence that continues to inspire new generations of garage rockers and punks.
The members went on to other bands, including the Dirtbombs, the Demolition Doll Rods, ’68 Comeback, and the Wolfmanhattan Project, but they never lost touch with each other musically; Collins and Kroha notably played together backing Chicago R&B legend. Still, the Gories remained in stasis until 2009, when they came together for a couple of reunion tours and discovered that the band’s fandom had grown stronger in their absence.
