Настоящее имя: The Hideous North
Об исполнителе:
Founded in 1999 in bassist/experimentalist Eric North’s studio apartment in a suburb of Milwaukee, WI., The Hideous North was primarily a studio project. After his sophomore album ‘If It Sings Like You Do’ in 2001, North began to employ the help of other musicians, mostly for live performances. His album output remained primarily himself recording as a multi-instrumentalist, though accompanying performers started to became more frequent after 2003’s ‘Background Music For Foreground Times’. In 2004 Eric North released both ‘The Nidus’ and ‘Dive’ - with the former initially released without the Hideous North moniker. Later versions of it were released as The Hideous North. 2005’s ‘Your Mother Called & Said She Doesn’t Love You’ marked the last album of new material from The Hideous North, though the band remained intermittently active through about 2012. A retrospective compilation album of re-recorded selections from The Hideous North’s prior discography [‘Recollected | 1999 - 2005’] was officially released in 2017, after a four year hiatus. In 2020 The Hideous North (rather silently) reissued its entire five album discography individually as “2020 Definitive Archive Editions”, wherein each album’s tracklist was reformatted, restored, reduced and/or expanded to include every track that was initially intended for the album in its original conception. With that intent, these CD editions contain a significant amount of previously unreleased material, remastered and re-recorded tracks (many of the same versions that previously appeared on ‘Recollected’), and extended auto-biographical liner notes. As of 2022, The Hideous North remains disbanded, with no announced plans to release new material. Classic Lineup (roughly 2004 through 2012) Eric North (2) - bass guitar, lead vocals Bernard Cronin - electric guitars, backing vocals Ceril Crume - percussion Rebecca Dresden - piano/keyboards [2006 thru 2008]
