The Band Bringing 90s Rock Back? Return To Dust Responds
Return To Dust joined 105.7 The Point backstage at Pointfest 2026 to talk about the comparison they've heard everywhere: Are they a grunge band? The band discusses why they don't see themselves as part of a grunge revival, how 90s influences shape their sound, and why they believe that era was more than just a musical genre. They also talk about: • New music that's already in the works • Touring with Mammoth WVH and YUNGBLUD • Why being home can feel lonelier than being on the road • The story behind their Outkast "Hey Ya!" cover • The personal experiences that inspire their songwriting • Upcoming European tour plans Return To Dust continues building momentum as one of the fastest-rising bands in modern rock, blending massive riffs, layered harmonies, and deeply personal songwriting into a sound that's turning heads everywhere they go.
