Sugar release new song, “Long Live Love”, announce reunion tour
Late last year, Sugar announced their return with a series of live shows and a new song, “House of Dead Memories.” Now the trio of Bob Mould, David Barbe and Malcolm Travis have released yet another new song, “Long Live Love,” which you can hear below. The band are also touring this fall for the first time in decades. Check out those dates below.
Mould said in a statement, “I wrote ‘Long Live Love’ in 2007 while living in Washington DC. It was the George W. Bush era, I was deep in my DJ world with Blowoff, yet still writing pop songs on guitars. Garbage 2.0 is one of my desert island albums, so it’s not surprising that ‘Long Live Love’ reminds me of a long lost Garbage song!”
Sugar’s Copper Blue is featured on our list of 91 Essential Alternative Rock Albums of the ’90s.
