Fiction Plane is a rock band from England. Originally formed in London under the name Santa's Boyfriend in 2001,〔http://www.vh1.com/artists/az/fiction_plane/bio.jhtml〕 Fiction Plane is currently composed of lead vocalist, guitar and bass player Joe Sumner (son of The Police frontman Sting); guitarist Seton Daunt; and American drummer Pete Wilhoit. ==Recording history== Fiction Plane's first major label release, ''Everything Will Never Be OK'', with MCA Records, was released in the US in March 2003 with the single "Hate". Shortly after the album's release, Bloomington, Indiana, drummer Pete Wilhoit joined the band. In spite of positive critical acclaim for the group, including being named a "Breaker" Artist by AOL Music in March 2003, MCA folded and the band moved over to Geffen Records. In 2005 the band released a 4-song EP entitled ''Bitter Forces and Lame Race Horses'' on the Geffen imprint label Everybody's Records. In 2006, Fiction Plane made a brief move to Interscope Records and parted ways with founding member and bass/keyboard player Dan Brown.〔 Joe Sumner took over on bass and the band started working on a new album, ''Left Side of the Brain'', which was released on Bieler Bros. Records on 22 May 2007. Behind the success of the singles "Two Sisters" (a popular single in France, Belgium and the Netherlands) and "Death Machine", the album peaked at number 46 on the ''Billboard'' Top Heatseekers chart.〔 On 23 January 2008, ''Left Side of the Brain'' was released in Japan through Sideout Records with two bonus tracks: "Drink (acoustic)" and "Put On Your Shoes". In April 2008, a limited tour edition of ''Left Side of the Brain'' was re-released in France through XIII Bis Records, containing five bonus tracks "VIP fast", "Coolest Kid", "At Ease", "Sleepwalker", "Drink (acoustic)"), a video clip ("Two Sisters"), and a hidden track, "The Circus Trouser Enthusiast". Four of the bonus cuts were unused demos recorded in 2006. "Sleepwalker" is an early version of what would become "Anyone", the official album's first track. On 23 March 2009, the band released its first-ever live DVD and CD package, simply entitled ''Paradiso'', through XIII Bis Records. It was recorded on 7 December 2008 at the band's sold-out performance in Amsterdam and then mixed by Ash Howes and mastered by Andy Walters at the famed Abbey Road Studios in London. Special features on the DVD include the unedited version of the "It's a Lie" video, and a photo gallery of images taken along the band's touring journey. In February 2010, Fiction Plane completed the recording of their latest studio album, ''Sparks'', which was released in Continental Europe on 10 May 2010 on Roadrunner Records. Produced by Paul Corkett, whose collaborations also include artists the likes of Nick Cave, Björk and Placebo, ''Sparks'' is said to include both large anthems and eclectic tracks. To date, it, like ''Paradiso'' has not been released domestically to North America. In July 2014 the band finished recording their album "Mondo Lumina". It was released on 9 February 2015 and available on vinyl, CD, Amazon, Deezer and Itunes.〔https://twitter.com/FICTIONPLANET〕 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「Fiction Plane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
