Interest continued to expand. The Rezillos music appeared on various “History of New Wave” compilations with the band enjoying a growing status on US underground and college radio stations and rock fanzines and CD re-releases of their material. The subsequent buzz via the emerging internet in the mid 1990s re-energised matters and the band reformed on Hogmanay (New Year’s Eve) 2002 with a spur-of-the moment gig in Edinburgh, Scotland playing to 150,000 revellers who had gathered in the capital city for the New year celebrations. In March 2003, the long-awaited cult-movie, Jackass: The Movie was finally released in the UK. The Rezillos classic foot stomper “Somebody’s Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight” featured on the soundtrack, introducing the band to a new audience.
Since reforming the band have released several independent singles. Having made it into the 21st century that they sang about so often in the 20th. It’s fitting that their rebirth should warp them into the present and still finding themselves in step both musically and conceptually.
And so today.
Zero (studio album released March 09 on Metropolis records.)
In March 2015 The Rezillos release their long awaited album ‘Zero’. The album was developed and recorded over an 18 month period. In slight contrast to their first album all songs on the album are self penned originals. The album continues the band’s tradition and draws from the unholy howl of rock and roll laced with searing vocal. Zero may sound somehow familiar while pushing the parameters. With dark guitar grunge and layers of melodic quirkism The Rezillos reference flips of the same coin; an otherworldly, dark to light, doom and boom, don’t give a damn sound.
Flying Saucer Attack 2018
The Rezillos have released via Cherry Red Records a compilation featuring their albums “Can’t Stand The Rezillos” and the live “Mission Accomplished” in its entirety and rare material from 1977 – 1979. This release includes B sides and alternate versions for the first time on CD. Louder Than War: “The Rezillos made invigorating, imaginative Pop Music. This is a great compilation”
