Babes In Toyland Handsome and Gretel

Fontanelle is the second studio album by the American punk rock band Babes in Toyland, released on August 11, 1992. It was the band’s first release on a major label (Reprise Records, a division of Warner Music), and their first recording to feature Maureen Herman on is Babes in Toyland’s most critically and commercially successful album, selling 220,000 copies approximately in the United States alone. Reviews of the album were very positive. The album’s success also prompted them to tour more and were eventually offered a place on the Lollapalooza tour in 1993, playing alongside such acts as Tool, 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, which consisted of a re-recording of one of their most notable songs “He’s My Thing“, and outtakes from Fontanelle.
