The Act-Ups are a Portuguese band formed in Barreiro, in 2001. Formed from the ashes of Country-Punk band The Sullens, they started up with a formation consisting of three guitars, bass, organ and drums. Their first record, I bet you love us too, released through Hey, Pachuco! Recs. in 2003 is a mix of Garage Rock; Punk and Soul, with a guitar driven sound and excellent song work.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 author = Rosa, Fernando )〕 Their second record, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell was released in 2006 through Hey, Pachuco! Recs. on CD. The record was also released in a European limited edition through Spanish label Beatnickmoon Rock and Roll Crafts. This record is a more mature and dark record without losing the ingredients that make the Act-Ups' sound so recognizable: fuzz and great soul songs. Band's line-up changed with Pistol Pete replacing Hellso on the drums and Gomez (was made for love) leaving the band. With this record the band had great acceptance in Spain, which led them to tour the country several times. Later that year the band released an EP (Take me Home) through Groovie Records. Music from that record was used in "Um ano mais longo", a movie by director Marco Martins.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 author = Nicotine, Nick )〕 In September 2008 the band released their 3rd album, The Act-Ups Play The Old Psychedelic Sounds of Today, recorded at Estúdio King in Barreiro. It was released on CD and LP through Hey, Pachuco! Recs. and Groovie Records.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 author = A, Trompa )〕 The band's current line-up is: Nick Nicotine: Vocals, guitar N Very: Guitar Johnny Intense: Guitar Pistol Pete: Drums, vocals Tony Fetiche: Bass == Discography == * ''I bet you love us too'' (2003) * ''The Marriage of Heaven and Hell'' (2006) * ''Take me Home EP''(2006) * ''The Act-Ups play the old psychedelic sounds of today'' (2008) 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「The Act-Ups」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
