LiLiPUT were a Swiss female post-punk band active from 1978 to 1983, initially known as Kleenex. ==History== The group formed in Zurich in 1978 under the name Kleenex, with a line-up of Regula Sing (vocals), Marlene Marder (Marlene Marti, guitar), Klaudia Schiff (Klaudia Schifferle, bass, vocals), and Lislot Ha (Lieselotte Hafner, drums).〔Strong, Martin C. (1999) ''The Great Alternative & Indie Discography'', Canongate, ISBN 0-86241-913-1, p. 356〕 After releasing an EP in Switzerland, the band were signed by Rough Trade Records and released their debut single "Ain't You" in November 1978.〔 In early 1979, Sing joined the Mo-dettes, and was replaced by Chrigle Freund.〔 who was later replaced by Astrid Spirit (Astrid Spirig). Second single "You" was their last under the Kleenex name as the threat of legal action by Kimberly-Clark in 1979 prompted a change of name to LiLiPUT (Kleenex being a proprietary brand in Switzerland). The band released two further singles, both of which were hits on the UK Indie Chart, before releasing their first, self-titled album in 1982.〔 A second album, ''Some Songs'', was released in December 1983, by which time the band had split up.〔 In 1993, Swiss label Off Course Records released a 46-track double-disc CD collecting Kleenex/LiLiPUT's 1978-83 releases.〔 In 2001 it was re-issued in the USA by the Kill Rock Stars label and subsequently on a 4 LP Box-Set on Mississippi Records. In 2010, Kill Rock Stars released a 24-track CD/DVD set ''Live Recordings, TV-Clips, and Roadmovie.'' 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「LiLiPUT」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
