Peter (nickname Buck) Stapleton (born 25 April 1954) is a musician from New Zealand. He is principally a drummer, although he has also contributed shortwave radio and tape manipulations to various recordings. In 1976 Stapleton joined Vacuum, who went largely unrecorded. The band consisted of Stapleton, Bill Direen, Steve Cogle, Peter Fryer and, later replacing Fryer, Alan Meek. When Vacuum split, Bill Direen went on to form The Bilders, while Stapleton, Cogle, Tony O'Grady and Meek, along with singer/songwriter transformed into The Victor Dimisich Band, which released its first EP, ''Native Waiter'', on the Flying Nun label in 1982. The Victor Dimisich Band disbanded, and posthumously released a cassette, ''Mekong Delta Blues'', on the Xpressway label in 1988. Stapleton and Cogle went on to form The Terminals in 1986. Stapleton also formed The Pin Group with Roy Montgomery and Ross Humphries. Their 1981 "Ambivalence" 7" was the first release on the Flying Nun label. Another 7", "Coat" was issued later that year, followed by ''The Pin Group Go To Town'' EP in 1982. The Pin Group then disbanded, yet reunited in 1992 for the "Eleven Years After" 7". Stapleton formed the garage rock band Scorched Earth Policy, who released two EPs; ''Dust to Dust'' (1984) and ''Going Through a Hole in the Back of Your Head'' (1985). These recordings were later compiled and reissued on the Medication label as ''Keep Away From The Wires''. During the 1990s, Stapleton moved into more experimental noise music, forming bands such as Dadamah, Flies Inside The Sun, and Sleep. In 1996 he founded the Metonymic and Medication record labels. As of 2006, he plays in Dunedin rock trio Eye. ==External links== *(Biography at New Zealand Electronic Poetry Centre ) *(An interview with Peter Stapleton ) *(An interview witrh The Terminals ) 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「Peter Stapleton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
