As a three-piece, they released mini-album ''Trailer'' in 1994, followed by ''1977'' in 1996. This 1996 release was named by ''NME'' as one of the 500 greatest albums of all time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time: 500-401 )〕 After the success of their full debut the band recruited Charlotte Hatherley as a guitarist and vocalist, releasing their second record ''Nu-Clear Sounds'' in 1998. After narrowly avoiding bankruptcy the band released ''Free All Angels'' in 2001 and a string of successful singles. Their fourth record ''Meltdown'', released in 2004, was the band's final record with Hatherley before returning to their original three-piece lineup for their fifth studio album ''Twilight of the Innocents'' in 2007. After five conventional albums the band released 26 singles in ''The A-Z Series'' in 2009, one every two weeks. The band have had one silver, two gold and two platinum-selling (and chart-topping) records in the United Kingdom, as well as 18 songs in the top 40 of the UK Singles Chart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kerrang.com/wheretostartwith/artists/ash )〕 In 2015, they released a sixth studio album, entitled ''Kablammo!''. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ash (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
