Babyland was a performance-based "independent electronic junk punk" band from Los Angeles, California, featuring Dan Gatto performing vocals and electronics and Michael Smith on percussion. Formed in 1989, they were advocates of the DIY punk ethic and part of the musical underground culture. They were well regarded in Industrial music, punk rock, indie rock and electronic music communities. Known for their live performances, Babyland shared the stage with bands such as The Offspring, Ethyl Meatplow, Grotus, Legendary Pink Dots, Dystopia, Foetus, Add N to (X), Nitzer Ebb, VNV Nation, and Psychic TV. Most of their live performances occurred in underground locations that have included places like LA's Jabberjaw, Kontrol Faktory, The Smell and 924 Gilman in Berkeley. Recordings prior to 1996 were released on the Los Angeles Punk rock label Flipside, and the band participated in several of this organization's Mojave Desert events. Subsequent material has been released by the band's own label, Mattress. The fifth full length (The Finger) and a compilation of earlier songs (Decade One) was released in Europe by dependent. Most recently, a deal with Metropolis Records has resulted in the commercial release of the sixth album (Cavecraft). A (post ) to the band's Myspace site on October 9, 2009, confirmed the long-lived group's breakup. The singer, Dan, has a new music project called "Continues". == Discography == * ''1991'' 7" (1991: Flipside) * ''Reality/Under/Smrow-Toh'' EP (1992: Flipside) * ''You Suck Crap'' CD (1992: Flipside) * ''Dog Snatcher'' EP (1993: Flipside) * ''Stomach'' 7"(1993: Flipside) * ''A Total Let-Down'' CD (1994: Flipside - 1999: Mattress (reissue)) * ''Who's Sorry Now'' CD (1995: Flipside) * ''Split'' CD (1996: Flipside) * ''B-Component'' 7" (1998: Mattress) * ''Outlive Your Enemies'' CD (1998: Mattress) * ''Decade One'' CD (2001: CD Compilation released in Europe: Dependent) * ''2002'' CD (2002: Mattress) * ''Past Lives'' EP (2003: Mattress) * ''The Finger'' CD (2004: Mattress) * ''Not Modern'' EP, 3" CD plus 3.5" Floppy Disk, limited edition of 500 (2008: Mattress) * ''Cavecraft'' CD (2008 (limited advance edition): Mattress) * ''Cavecraft'' CD (2009: Metropolis) 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「Babyland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
