Porno for Pyros have not released new music since 1997’s “Hard Charger,” which was included on the soundtrack to the Howard Stern film Private Parts. The group has released the two albums: its self-titled 1993 debut, featuring the hit “Pets” and 1996’s Good God’s Urge.
The band performed their first full set since 1998 in May 2022 at the Welcome to Rockville festival at Daytona Motor Speedway in Daytona, Fla. Porno for Pyros filled in as short notice replacement for Jane’s Addiction, who canceled due to guitarist Dave Navarro’s issues with long COVID.
