Chosen for Lollapalooza tour

In 1993, the band was chosen to take part in that year’s Lollapalooza tour, playing alongside such acts as Primus , Alice in Chains , Dinosaur Jr. and Rage Against the Machine . During dates at Lollapalooza, the band released their third and final EP, Painkillers , in June 1993. In 1994, journalist Neal Karlen began writing Babes in Toyland: The Making and Selling of a Rock and Roll Band , which dealt with the band’s signing to Warner and the recording of Fontanelle . Commenting on the book in retrospect, Bjelland said: “I feel bad for [Karlen]. He told me he lost a lot of his notes halfway through, and he spent his advance. So he made a lot of it up. Part of it’s true. But a lot of it’s not. He’s apologized.”
