Youth in Asia were an early 1980s UK anarcho punk band from London, whose name was word play of the word euthanasia.〔Glasper, p. 161〕 They were differentiated from many other bands within that scene by their prominent use of the synthesizer. The band's first live performance was in Brussels in December 1981.〔 They played several gigs at squatted venues, including Crass's squat gig at Zig Zag in London,〔Berger〕 and the Wapping Autonomy Centre with other bands including The Apostles, Crass, Flux of Pink Indians, Twelve Cubic Feet, The Mob, Poison Girls, Hagar the Womb, Riot/Clone, DIRT and others. The band sang 'political' lyrics about issues such as war, sexism and state terrorism. The initial line-up was Kay Byatt (vocals), Mark Edmondson(guitar), Wayne Preston (bass guitar), Punky Pete (drums), and Olga Ashworth (vocals/keyboards).〔 Pete was soon replaced by Eddie on drums, and Lou, formerly of The Witches joined on rhythm guitar.〔 In 1983, Eddie and Lou both left the band with Mick Clarke and Bernie, both previously of Windsor's Disease, replacing them.〔Glasper, p. 163〕 The new line-up recorded a single for Crass Records, but the band split up before it was released, with some of the members forming a new band, Decadent Few.〔Glasper, p. 164〕 Byatt later sang with Radical Dance Faction and The Astronauts.〔 ==Band members== * Kaya Byatt - vocals * Eddy - drums * Olga Orbit - vocals, synthesizer * Wayne Sultana - Bass * Stigmata - guitar, synthesizer * Lou - Guitar * William Kolar - flute 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「Youth in Asia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
