Shriekback is not an easy band to sort out. They borrowed heavily from funk only had a identical different agendum; their music was more than worthy for reflexion than for parties. They combined synthesizers and drum machines with throbbing bass lines and maverick vocals to extract a primal earthly business concern where the line 'tween human and creature was foggy. The rubric of their twenty-five percent album, Swelled Night Music, power be the most summary summation of their crop: Shriekback's medicine was perpetually an inhibit soundtrack for life-time in the dark, only with the vehemence on the possibilities quite than the dangers. Though often haunting, it was non gothic and harbored strains of pop and dance that rosebush to the surface from time to prison term. Still, notwithstanding accessible they became, Shriekback polite an atmospheric state of secret that made them concentrated to wedge down. Further complicating whatever rating of their life history is the fact that they never made a single, smart as a whip record album that concentrated all their strengths in one shoes; their dress hat substantial is spreading taboo across a decennium during which they underwent a great take of development.


Shriekback came together in 1982 as a unaffixed tie based around the trio of Dave Allen (bass), Barry Andrews (keyboards/vocals), and Carl Marsh (vocals/guitar). Allen and Andrews had previously been members of Gang of Four and XTC, respectively; Marsh had played with the more obscure Out on Blue Six. They cursorily developed a trademark sound that had little to do with the members' previous credits. The bedrock of that sound was Allen's sinewy all the same melted bass playing, which was a quantum saltation beyond his comparatively unprocessed ferment with Gang of Four. On top of this Shriekback deployed creative and intricate metal drum programs; Andrews' many-sided synthesizer shadings; strategically situated, mostly musical rhythm guitar from Marsh; and whispered vocals from Andrews along with Marsh's more melodic tattle. Both vocalists were technically limited, merely this was more than than compensated for by the band's tight playing and remindful, intelligent lyrics.


The get-go Shriekback release was the six-song EP Tench, which appeared on the English Y judge in 1982. It was followed in 1983 by the LP Upkeep, likewise on Y, which featured the quasi-hit "Lined Up," the sung that put Shriekback on the map for many hoi polloi. Tending was picked up and released in the U.S. by Warner Brothers, with an adapted running order and deuce different tracks, including the polyrhythmic "My Spine (Is the Bass Line)."


Although Upkeep was critically acclaimed and garnered a fairish amount of airplay from both college wireless and fledgeling modern rock radio, that was not sufficiency for Warner Brothers, world Health Organization dropped Shriekback and deleted Care shortly after its handout. As a resultant role, the follow-up, 1984's Block Science, was released but in Europe (this fourth dimension on Arista). Slicker, less murky, and more focussed on electronics than its predecessor, Jam Science contained the dub-influenced exclusive "Hand on My Heart."


A good deal of Shriekback's music from this early geological period is to the highest degree readily uncommitted on deuce mistitled, indisposed packaged, but indispensable CDs from Kaz Records. The Best of Shriekback: The Infinite is made up of seven-spot songs from Care, ternary from Tench, and the single "Running on the Ground." The Best of Shriekback Volume Two: Evolution offers one more song from Tending and basketball team from Jam Science, along with a nice compartmentalization of remixes and B-sides.


Toward the end of the Jam Science sessions, Shriekback became a quartette with the addition of drummer Martyn Barker; however, they apace became a trio once more when Carl Marsh foregone battle of Midway through the recording of their third record album. Andrews took over as fillet of sole singer and the addition of Lu Edmonds on guitar brought a more aggressive sound to Oil and Gold, which was released in 1985. Songs like "Malaria" and "Nemesis" rocked harder than anything Shriekback had recorded ahead, delivery them a far wider audience than they had antecedently enjoyed. Oil and Gold sold intimately in its U.S. release on Island Records.


Shriekback released 2 more albums on Island in the '80s. 1986's Braggy Night Music featured a heart trio of Allen, Andrews, and Barker augmented by chartered hands like Mike Cozzi (guitar), Steve Halliwell (keyboards), and Wendy and Sarah Partridge (backup vocals). Continuing Oil and Gold's go toward accessibility, Big Night Music had a more than organic sound with an emphasis on live percussion section. Shriekback seemed poised on the brink of improbable stardom, just Allen foregone ahead the recording of Go Bang! (1988), which was unwell received by both critics and fans. Perhaps they were assign off by the absence of Allen's signature low end, or possibly it was the inconsistent material, including an ill-advised cover of KC and the Sunshine Band's "Get Down Tonight."


That appeared to be the terminal of Shriekback, wHO dropped out of sight in the late '80s and early '90s. Their only spill during that period was the pointless and exploitatory 1990 digest The Dancing Years. But Allen, Andrews, and Barker reunited in 1992 to record the splendid Sacred City, which basically picked up where Big Night Music left off. There was some other long muteness subsequently that, just as of 2000 some form of Shriekback was seemingly still in beingness; an album called Naked Apes and Pond Life, featuring Andrews, Barker, Edmonds, and 2 new members, was released that year by the Australian Mushroom label.
