Everclear's Art Alexakis Talks Reissuing 1993 Debut Album, Shares Revelation About the Band

Everclear has been going strong for three decades now and is even reissuing their debut 1993 album, World of Noise, to celebrate. Recently, Alexakis sat down with PopCulture.com to talk about re-releasing the album, which is hitting streaming services for the first time on Friday, June 10. He also opened up about the origins of Everclear, revealing that - after nearly a decade of playing music in Southern California - this "was going to be my last band."
Recalling the story of led him to start Everclear, Alexakis explained, "I had a band in San Francisco and a label in San Francisco, but I found out my girlfriend, who's from Portland, found out she was pregnant. So we moved to Portland in late '91 and tried to do the long-distance thing with my band, but just couldn't afford it. Couldn't afford it. We were on welfare. We were poor. I had no money." He continued, "And so, Everclear was going to be my last band. If that didn't work somewhere down the line, we were going to probably move to LA, and I was going to work for a record label and write songs for other people and do that thing. But I wanted to do one more band, so Everclear was my last band."
