November 1999 Yahoo! Web Celeb Bush Weaned on punk rock, the sound that IS Bush seems to stem more from an American alternative origin then the typical Brit pop. This sound has earned Bush a top spot on the American charts and in the favors of the likes of the MTV generation. In the six-plus years the band has been together, Bush has had success unparalleled by any other British counterpart in the alternative genre. This success can only continue with the release of their third CD The Science of Things. In 1992, Gavin Rossdale (guitar/vocal) met up with Nigel Pulsford (guitar) and started working together. With the accompaniment of Robin Goodridge (drums) and Dave Parsons (bass) they formed Bush. All of the band members were working steadily before they united and all shared the same common frustrations with the British music scene. What resulted in this collaboration was a more grunge/alternative sound that was most common in the states, a coveted and sought-after music market. Bush toured and recorded with the money which all four members made at their day jobs. In 1993 on the advice of a friend, Rob Kahane, the president of Trauma Records, signed Bush after seeing them in a local nightclub. Yahoo! Music Discography Sixteen Stone Razorblade Suitcase Deconstructed The Science Of Things Yahoo! Clubs - Bush Their budget was small, but the result of Bush's first CD, Sixteen Stone, was phenomenal. The lyrics and signature growling voice of Rossdale, mirrored the energy and intensity of the melody of the band along with the excitement of Bush's live show. Less than a year after the record was released, the first single "Everything Zen" caught the attention of the American airwaves and also MTV. With support from MTV for the first video, "Everything Zen" hit #1 on the Alternative charts. The Bush phenomenon turned into a staple on the Alternative airwaves as the first five singles released from Sixteen Stone went to #1. In 1995, Bush started what they thought would be a short small club tour of the US. This quickly snowballed into an nearly two-year touring frenzy. Hitting over 200 US cities, the band played almost nightly promoting Sixteen Stone. With each new #1 single, the show venue would get bigger and the fan base would broaden. This first CD also won Bush the MTV's "Viewers Choice" award. Finally in the winter of 1995 after two grueling years, Bush's rookie venture sat in the Top 10 of Billboard's Top 200 Albums. Bush's sophomore endeavor was even better received then the first. In 1996, Razorblade Suitcase was recorded with the same fever as the tour. The live performance momentum and style carried over into the recording studio with each song taking little more than two takes. Their first track off Razorblade Suitcase, "Swallowed," helped debut the second CD in the #1 spot on the Billboard's Top 200 Albums. The CD sold two million copies by the end of 1996 as the band kicked off an 80-city tour and extending it to include dates around the world. Deconstructed is an eleven-track remix of songs from Sixteen Stone and Razorblade Suitcase. The first single, Mouth, was featured on the "American Werewolf in Paris" soundtrack and was honored with a MTV movie award nomination. This single became one of Bush's biggest hits yet. This record might be broken with the highly anticipated release of the bands fourth CD, The Science of Things, coming out in early November 1999.
