Oh that reunion train, she just keeps rolling along. Fresh from a surprise appearance at a Barack Obama campaign rally organized by lead singer Craig Wedren, melodic indie rockers Shudder to Think are hitting Chicago on their first tour since breaking up in 1998. The Washington, DC-rooted group released a pair of seminal albums in the early '90s which married the jagged post-hardcore of Dischord labelmates Fugazi and Rites of Spring to tuneful, technically precise songcraft and a theatrical (some would say "emo") delivery. And unlike some reunion bandwagoneers, Shudder to Think's impressive chops have aged surprisingly well.
