The evolution of music continued in 2024, with numerous bands saying their (supposed) farewells, while other bands decided they still have more left in them and decided to reunite after some time away.Sad as it may be, we bade farewell to rock and roll legends Aerosmith in 2024. Jane’s Addiction had an explosive bust-up onstage that led them to taking an immediate hiatus that some have speculated could be permanent. Meanwhile, Rage Against the Machine and Fleetwood Mac quietly confirmed that they had concluded their respective careers after already having spent some extended time away. Those are just a few of the breakups.But, with some breakups comes the hopes that eventually with some time away the bands will resolve what ails them and decide they want to come back for more. It was a truly triumphant year for comebacks, led by Creed fulfilling their 2023 reunion promise with one of the year’s biggest tours and Linkin Park surprising many by resuming their career with a new vocalist, drummer and touring guitarist joining the band.READ MORE: Mike Shinoda’s ‘Motivating Factor’ for Linkin Park ReunionWho else already returned to the concert stage or album release schedule?
