Bandgeschicht
[änneren | Quelltext änneren]Virgeschicht a Grënnung vun Erasure
[änneren | Quelltext änneren]De Vince Clarke ass e Synthesizer- a Sequenzer-Spezialist, deen als Grënnungsmember vun Depeche Mode d'Hits „New Life“ a „Just Can't Get Enough“ komponéiert huet. Schonn Enn 1981 huet de Clarke Depeche Mode wéinst musikaleschen Differenze verlooss, fir 1982 mam Alison Moyet d'Duo Yazoo ze grënnen. Dem Duo Yazoo säin éischten Hit war „Only You“, deen de Vince Clarke fir Depeche Mode geschriwwen hat. No zwéin Albumen an enger Rei vun erfollegräiche Singelen ("Don't Go", "Situation", "Nobody's Diary") gouf Yazoo wéinst perséinlechen Differenzen opgeléist.
1983 huet hien nach de Projet The Assembly zesumme mam Tountechniker gestart, deen awer och erëm opgeléist gouf.
1985 huet de Vince Clarke dann iwwer eng Annonce am Melody Maker e Sänger fir en neie Projet gesicht. De Leschte vu véierzeg Kandidate war den Andy Bell. Erasure war gebuer.
1985–1994
[änneren | Quelltext änneren]1985 huet Erasure hir éischte Single „Who Needs Love Like That“ verëffentlecht, déi e klengen Diskothéikenhit gouf. Den nächste méi groussen Hit war „Oh L'amour“ aus dem Debutalbum Wonderland (1986). Dës Single hat virun allem an Däitschland a Frankräich e grousse Succès.
Erasure hat hiren éischte groussen internationalen Hit mat „Sometimes“, dee sech a vill europäesche Länner an d'Charts placéiere konnt. „Victim of Love“ war eng No. 1 an den US Dance Charts. Den zweeten Album, The Circus (1987), aus deem déi Single sinn, huet sech dowéinst besser verkaaft.
Déi nächst fënnef Albumen The Innocents (1988), Wild! (1989), Chorus (1991), Pop! The First 20 Hits (1992) an I Say I Say I Say (1994) goufen all No. 1 an de britteschen Charts. Pop! gouf a Groussbritannien mat Dräifach-Platin ausgezeechent. Aus deenen Albe stamen international Hits wéi z. B. „Ship of Fools“, „A Little Respect“, „Blue Savannah“, „Chorus“, „Love to Hate You“ an „Always“.
D'EP Crackers International mam Hit „Stop!“ gouf No. 2 an den UK Single Charts. D'ABBA-esque EP, op där Erasure d'ABBA-Hits „Lay All Your Love On Me“, „S.O.S.“, „Take A Chance On Me“ a „Voulez Vous“ gecovert huet, war souguer No.1 an de britteschen Charts.
1995–2005
[änneren | Quelltext änneren]Nom nach populären Album I Say I Say I Say (1994) huet Erasure kaum nach kommerziell erfollegräich Albumen erausbruecht. Den Album Loveboat gouf an Amerika net emol verëffentlecht.
2003 hat Erasure e Comeback mat enger Cover-Versioun vum Peter Gabriel-Hit "Solsbury Hill". 2003 koum och e Best-of-Album Hits! The Very Best Of Erasure eraus. Eng DVD mat alle Museksvideoe vun Erasure koum och eraus.
Enn 2004 huet de Sänger Andy Bell bekannt ginn, datt hien zanter 1998 HIV-positiv ass.[1]
