Enablers are a post-punk band from San Francisco, California which features the poetry/spoken word of Pete Simonelli. ==History== In addition to Simonelli, a published poet and writer who was working as a courier in the band's early years, the band's original lineup included Joe Goldring (guitar, formerly of Swans, Toiling Midgets and (with Enablers ) Touched by a Janitor), Kevin Thomson (guitar, Timco, Nice Strong Arm, Morning Champ, and (concurrent with Enablers ) Touched by a Janitor), and Yuma Joe Byrnes (drums, ex-Tarnation / Broken Horse, Touched by a Janitor).〔DuShane, Tony (2007) "(Nightlife: 'Enablers' move from quiet jazz to driving rock )", ''San Francisco Chronicle'', September 20, 2007, retrieved 2011-07-25〕〔Funk, Peter (2006) "(Enablers: Output Negative Space )", PopMatters, June 9, 2006, retrieved 2011-07-23〕 Enablers' first album, ''End Note'', was released on Neurot Recordings in 2004; in 2006 they followed this with the ''Output Negative Space'' album (described by PopMatters as having "a swagger that seems almost malevolent",〔) and a split single with the band Redpanda. In 2007 they released the single-sided one track twelve-inch single "The Achievement" through Lancashire and Somerset, which also appeared on the follow up album, ''Tundra'', in 2008; a shared release between Lancashire and Somerset, Majic Wallet, and Exile on Mainstream. In 2009 the band released ''Now You Can Answer My Prayers'' as a 10" vinyl only EP, again through Lancashire and Somerset. After a short hiatus, following the departure of Joe Byrnes, Doug Scharin (formerly of Codeine, HiM, June of 44, Rex, and Mice Parade) joined the band as drummer for the recording of the album ''Blown Realms And Stalled Explosions'' (released in 2011) and for subsequent tours. As of 2013 the band has toured and recorded with a new drummer, Sam Ospovat (Beep, Naytronix, Timosaurus, Anteater, Passwords, CavityFang, Kapowski and PIKI). Enablers' last album, The Rightful Pivot, was released on Atypeek Music, Lancashire and Somerset and Exile on Mainstream in 2015 with European tours. 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「Enablers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
