Be Your Own Pet has spoken to NME about getting the band back together again after 13 years apart, the real reasons behind their split, and the downside of indie rock’s heydey.Last week, the indie-garage punks announced they’d be playing two gigs, opening for Jack White’s ‘The Supply Chain Issue Tour’.

Over the past few years, I’ve really made peace with a lot of that stuff. Now the joy is what’s leftover.”Pearl’s husband, Ben Swank (who happens to co-own
