The Distillers (Engl. The distiller ) are an American punk / grunge band. It existed from 1998 to 2006. Since 2018 the band has been active again.

Band history

The line-up changed several times. The first album was: Brody Dalle (guitar, vocals), Rose "Casper" Mazzola (guitar, vocals), Kim Fuelleman (bass, vocals) and Mat Young (drums). Most recently, The Distillers consisted of Brody Dalle (Armstrong) (guitar, vocals), Tony Bevilacqua (guitar) and Ryan Sinn (bass). Drummer Andy Granelli left the band at the beginning of 2006 to concentrate on the new band "Darker My Love" together with an old friend. Ryan Sinn also resigned from the band; now there were only two members left. The following album should still be finished. Brody Dalle commented on this by saying that the band still existed.

The first two albums were comparable to Rancid , but when Brody Dalle divorced Rancid frontman Tim Armstrong , both the sound and attitude of the band changed. This resulted in the last album Coral Fang . This is more likely to be assigned to the genre grunge , is much more melodic and sometimes contains much quieter pieces. With the piece "Deathsex" it also contains an eleven-minute piece with several complete rhythm and melody changes and general pauses .

According to the Distillers forum, the band has broken up. Brody Dalle and Tony Bevilacqua started the band Spinnerette in 2007 .

In January 2018, Dalle posted a video on Instagram and Twitter announcing the band's return.
