Fig Dish - That's What Love Songs Often Do

Label: Forge Again

Reissued 8/1/2025, Originally released 1995

In July 1995, FIG DISH's debut That's What Love Songs Often Do was released. And just like that, the band was catapulted from regional obscurity into national obscurity. MTV played the video for the band's first single, "Seeds," and FIG DISH toured the U.S. and Canada relentlessly with bands like Veruca Salt, The Muffs, Letters to Cleo, Juliana Hatfield, Local H, and The Rentals. In 1997, their sophomore album When Shove Goes Back To Push was sunk by a risqué music video for the single "When Shirts Get Tight" featuring adult film stars—a video MTV refused to play—and the band was dropped by an indifferent Polygram Records in the summer of 1998.
