The reformatted Public Image Ltd. announced today that it will return to the U.K. this summer with a six-date run of shows in July that follows John Lydon and Co.’s initial comeback tour of the band’s homeland last December and a just-completed North American trek.

With the release of its second post-reunion album, ‘Intriguer,’ approaching, Crowded House has released an official video for the record’s opening track and first single, ‘Saturday Sun.’

With its new album delayed until fall, landmark postpunk act Killing Joke this week announced it will issue ‘In Excelsis,’ an EP culled from the same sessions, later this month — and released ‘Endgame,’ a free MP3 that marks the first new music from the band’s original lineup since 1982’s ‘Revelations.’

Reformed jangle-pop act The Primitives are extending their reunion with a quartet of just-announced shows in Europe and their native U.K. this summer — and are hinting at a return to the U.S. this fall following a successful New York City gig earlier this month.

Last night at London’s Royal Albert Hall, former Jam bandmates Paul Weller and Bruce Foxton reunited on stage for the first time since 1982 to play three songs together during the second night of Weller’s five-gig residency.

Last Friday, drummer Anton Fier reactivated the Golden Palominos for the experimental folk-rock collective’s first concert in more than 20 years, playing a headlining set at Le Poisson Rouge in New York City with the band’s Syd Straw-fronted 1985-’87 lineup.

Two weeks after playing its first show since 1997 (as ‘Nudedragons’), the reunited Soundgarden tonight shared the first official taste of that Seattle gig: a pro-shot video of the band performing ‘Beyond the Wheel,’ a track from its 1988 debut album ‘Ultramega OK.’

The ABC News web music series Amplified today posted a nearly eight-minute segment on The Specials, presumably filmed last week while the reunited ska legends were in New York City for a pair of shows to cap off their very brief U.S. tour.

Two years into their reunion, college-rock faves The Feelies continue to perform sporadically in the U.S. — and will give fans another chance to see the band this summer with a trio of home-state shows.

Faith No More singer Chuck Mosley rejoined the recently reunited band on stage at San Francisco’s Warfield Theatre last night for the first time in more than 20 years, singing his signature tune ‘We Care A Lot’ and four others during the band’s encore before a final duet with his replacement, Mike Patton.

New Wave vets from both sides of the pond — Brit pop-rockers Squeeze and New York mainstays Blondie — each will tour the U.S. this summer co-headlining some or all of their dates with long-running rockers Cheap Trick.

The 1985-’87 Syd Straw-fronted lineup of Anton Fier’s experimental and ever-shifting Golden Palominos will perform live next month for the first time in more than 20 years in what may be a precursor to a full-time reunion of the band beginning this fall.

With a new reissue due this month, the two key figures in Big Audio Dynamite — former Clash member Mick Jones and DJ/filmmaker Don Letts — have broached the idea of reuniting the ’80s cross-genre act, Letts tells Billboard.
