Dr. Phibes and the House of Wax Equations were a psychedelic rock band based in the north west of England in the early to mid 1990s. They were regulars in the UK Indie Chart and had some links with other local bands in the North West. The band's name was linked to American actor Vincent Price who starred in ''House of Wax'' and the two ''Dr. Phibes'' films. The band toured extensively around the UK and mainland Europe, including a major European tour featuring performances at rock festivals in France, Switzerland and Germany. ==History== The band, which consisted of Howard King Jr (guitar and vocals) Lee Belsham (bass) and Keith York (drums), grew from meeting on a music course at South Cheshire College of Further Education in late 1989. They released their first EP ''Sugarblast'' in 1990. This was followed up by their first album ''Whirlpool'' in 1991. A second EP, called ''Hazy Lazy Hologram'', was released the same year. The level of success continued with appearances at the Glastonbury Festival in 1992. Dr Phibes also recorded Peel Sessions for the Radio One DJ John Peel in 1991 and 1993.〔(BBC Peel Sessions )〕 They also recorded some tracks for Mark Radcliffe's late night Radio 1 show. The band would release a further four EPs; their second album ''Hypnotwister'' came out in 1993. Dr Phibes' final live performance was in Manchester in 1995. Shortly afterwards the group folded. 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「Dr. Phibes and the House of Wax Equations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
