They go on hiatus, breakup, members leave, they get back together, sometimes, repeatedly. It's par for the course with complicated relationships, and many bands are just that. We certainly are. But we're also not finished. So, for those who have followed us, are emotionally invested, or are paying attention, She Wants Revenge will resume recording and touring. This isn't a reunion, it's a continuation. SWR is bigger than two individuals. It no longer has to break-up or cease to be due to timing, life, and personalities, and it won't. Love us, hate us, or scroll past indifferently, She Wants Revenge isn't going anywhere."".
