The Afghan Whigs

In December 1993, when The Afghan Whigs performed "Debonair" live on the MTV show "120 Minutes," they were riding high on the success of their album "Gentlemen," which had been released earlier that year. "Gentlemen" marked a significant turning point for the band, showcasing a darker and more nuanced sound than their previous works, blending elements of rock, soul, and alternative music. The album received critical acclaim and further solidified their reputation in the burgeoning grunge and alternative rock scenes of the early '90s. Interestingly, "Debonair" was one of the standout tracks from "Gentlemen," noted for its provocative lyrics and compelling melodies. The live performance captured the band's raw energy and emotional depth, further endearing them to their growing fan base at this pivotal moment in their career.
