The Afghan Whigs - See and don't see (HD) The Afghan Whigs are an American rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio, originally active from 1986 to 2001. They have since reformed. At their peak, the group -- with core members Greg Dulli (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rick McCollum (lead guitar), and John Curley (bass), as well as various drummers (including Steve Earle and Michael Horrigan) -- evolved into one of the leading groups of 1990s alternative rock, rising up around the grunge movement but ultimately transcending it. Evolving from a garage punk band in the vein of the Replacements, Dinosaur Jr., and Mudhoney to a literate, soul-inflected post-punk quartet, the Afghan Whigs would ultimately become one of the most critically acclaimed alternative bands of the early 1990s and one of the early pioneers from the American indie underground to exploit the support of major labels. Called "more than just a footnote in the annals of the Nineties alternative scene" by Rolling Stone, Afghan Whigs albums like 1993's Gentlemen would place on numerous critics' polls as one of the greatest albums of the '90s. In the band's fifteen-year career, lead singer Greg Dulli would also gain a reputation as one of the most notorious frontmen in rock, both for his provocative behavior and dark lyrical subject matter. While Dulli frequently claimed in interviews that the Afghan Whigs would never get back together following their dissolution in 2001, the group announced in 2012 that it would reunite for a series of major concerts. Other projects Dulli has recorded and performed with Mark Lanegan as The Gutter Twins Dulli continues to record and tour with his evolving collective The Twilight Singers and as a solo artist Dulli also has been executive producer on a number of works by Italian indie-rock band Afterhours on top of acting as their sponsor for a number of US tours between 2006 and 2011. Curley is the bassist of Fists of Love McCollum is the guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter for Moon Maan Horrigan is the bassist for Brendan Benson Earle is the songwriter, lead singer, and guitarist of Earle Grey Dulli does most of the lead vocals on the soundtrack to Backbeat, a 1994 film about the beginning days of the Beatles. Dave Grohl (Nirvana), Don Fleming (Gumball), Mike Mills (R.E.M.), Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth) and Dave Pirner (Soul Asylum) accompany Dulli as a "supergroup" playing the Beatles early live staples (none of which are actually written by the Beatles).
