Electrasy were a British rock band. Formed in 1994 in Dorset, UK, the band consisted of vocalist Alisdair (Ali) McKinnell, guitarists Nigel Nisbet and Steve Atkins, bassist Alex Meadows (who joined the band before they recorded ''In Here We Fall''), drummer Paul Pridmore and Keyboardist Jim Hayden. The band were active until 2002, although several members of the band still based in the UK after this time continued to perform occasional gigs. Nigel Nisbet has subsequently released two solo-albums, "Calling All The Dreamers" in 2007, and "Musicians are Different" in 2015. Alex Meadows has also released recent solo material under the name "The Inexperienced", and is also a regular performer with various other acts (Tom Jones, Il Divo). ==Career== Electrasy achieved UK Singles Chart success with "Morning Afterglow" (reached number 19), and released two major label albums, 1998's ''Beautiful Insane'' in the UK and 2000's ''In Here We Fall'' in the U.S. "Morning Afterglow" was on both albums and a new version of "Angel" was recorded for ''In Here We Fall''. Trouble with their record labels – first MCA/Universal UK and then Arista in the U.S. – delayed release of the third album, ''Wired for Dreaming'', which was finally released in October 2008 and can be ordered online. ''In Here We Fall'' features a cover of the Led Zeppelin song "Dazed and Confused". The song "Cosmic Castaway", from the same album, was also featured on the soundtrack album of the 2000 animated film, ''Titan A.E.'' In addition, their song "Renegades" can be heard in the final scene and credits for the movie, ''Monkeybone'', although the song does not appear on the soundtrack album. In 2013, the band released a previously unreleased version of the song "Today's the Day" for Pink Hedgehog Records' compilation album "Close to the Hedge", featuring various artists. This version of the song was originally recorded in 1997 as part of the pre-production for the album Beautiful Insane ''The Guinness Book Of Records'' has stated that the video to their single "Best Friend's Girl" features the group and members of the Official Laurel and Hardy fan club throwing 4,400 custard pies in three minutes. 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「Electrasy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
