History
The history of the group began with the release of the self-titled debut album in 1992 . However, the success of the team came fully four years later - with the release in 1996 of the album Bringing Down the Horse . The singles “One Headlight” and “6th Avenue Heartache” became hits. The band later recorded a cover version of David Bowie ’s hit “Heroes,” which became the soundtrack for the Godzilla movie.
The band’s third studio album (Breach) was released in 2000 , adding to the list of singles of the group with the hits “Sleepwalker” and “Letters from the Wasteland”.
In November 2002, the group released their fourth album, Red Letter Days , which turned out to be a little tougher in content than previous Wallflowers albums. A distinctive feature of the album is the fact that most of the guitar parts were played by Jacob Dylan. In May 2005, the band introduced Rebel, Sweetheart .
And after a long lull, on October 9, 2012, Jacob Dylan's band released the 6th studio album Glad All Over .
