A recent blog post highlights the unexpected resurgence of Figures On A Beach with the release of their new single “Play,” available for download on Bandcamp after decades. Originally recorded in 1991 amid a musical landscape shifting towards grunge, the band had almost disbanded due to a lack of label interest. However, thanks to a restoration effort by Garret Vandermolen, the track is now being shared with a new audience.
