House of Large Sizes was an alternative rock band from Cedar Falls, Iowa, in the United States. The band's lineup was primarily Dave Deibler and Barb Schlif, and featured a number of drummers throughout the group's run. House of Large Sizes released its first recordings in 1987, and officially disbanded on December 20, 2003. Deibler and Schilf are married and were the two consistent members of this power trio. Schlif played bass and sang; Deibler played guitar and was lead vocalist. Deibler was the band's primary songwriter. House of Large Sizes, often abbreviated HOLS, played a unique style of rock with a driving beat, lots of rhythmic changes, unexpected rests and false endings. Although the group's music was unusual, it drew on common influences--punk rock, funk and heavy metal. Punk shows itself in the short duration of many HOLS songs. The gut-level emotional energy of the music (largely attributable to Deibler's voice and guitar style) and the band's DIY ethic also show their punk roots. Deviating from the DIY standard, HOLS released one album, "My Ass Kicking Life," on Red Decibel/Columbia in 1993. They worked primarily with small labels like WAR (What Are Records?) and Toxic Shock or released recordings on their own. Funk can be heard in Schlif 's bass playing and the throbbing, danceable rhythms of the music. Heavy metal elements are present in Deibler's powerful guitar technique and the short musical phrases from which the songs are constructed. Deibler and Schlif have continued to make and record music together since HOLS disbanded. ==Reunion shows== 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「House of Large Sizes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
