Biography:
After disbanding The Orwells have gotten back together and released a new self titled album on June 17th 2019.
As of 2018-08-29, The Orwells have disbanded following numerous accusations of rape and sexual harassment by the band members.
For The Orwells, Remember When will be an introduction of sorts—the 12-track rat-race shows the band’s repertoire of pranging riffs and sneering, snot-nosed vocals. The tracks are a walloping war-cry from a generation that up until this point has only offered bubblegum pop—the animus of The Orwells.
