Moolelo o ka Hui Eono Uila
Ua kaulana nui ka hui ʻElekene ʻEono ma muli o ka wiwo ʻole a me ka hoʻonāukiuki i nā mele a me nā wikiō. Ua hana mua ʻia ka hui ma 1996 ma Detroit ma lalo o ka inoa ʻo The Wildbunch. Akā ua haʻalele ʻia kēia inoa ma muli o ka mea i lawe mua ʻia e kahi hui huakaʻi-hop mai Bristol.
I ka makahiki 2001 ua hoʻokuʻu lākou i kā lākou hoʻokahi Danger! ʻO High Voltage, ka mea i poʻokela i nā pakuhi UK. A ua ʻike ʻo NME magazine ʻo ia ka mea maikaʻi loa o ka pule. C Pilikia! Ua hoʻokani ʻo High Voltage band ma kahi hōʻike TV ahiahi.
No ka manawa lōʻihi, aia nā lono e pili ana i ke komo ʻana o Jack White mai The White Stripes i ke mele. Ua hōʻole ka poʻe mele. Ua hoʻoikaika ka hui i ka holomua o ke mele me kahi wikiō kupaianaha.
Hoʻohana ikaika ka hui Electric Six i nā wikiō e "hoʻolaha" i kā lākou mele. Ma ka makahiki 2019, ua hana lākou i 21 mau wikiō, akā ʻo ka hapa nui o lākou he haʻahaʻa loa, aneane amateur.
Loaʻa ka kaulana o ka huimele
Nā wikiō no nā mele mai ka album ʻO ke ahi - Ua lilo ka Danger i mea kaulana! Ka Voltage Kiʻekiʻe a me ka Bar Gay. Ua lilo ka lua o ka mele i mele nui loa i ka moʻolelo o ka hui. A ua kapa ʻia ka clip i ka maikaʻi loa o ka makahiki e kekahi mau mele mele US.
ʻAʻole makemake ka poʻe a pau i kāna mea hoʻonāukiuki, a ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ke kiʻi ma ke kīwī ʻAmelika.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album lōʻihi piha mua, ʻo Fire, ma 2003 a hele i ke gula ma UK. Ma hope o kēlā, ua haʻalele koke nā mea mele ʻekolu i ka hui: Rock and Roll Indian, Sergeant Jobot a me Disco.
I ka makahiki 2005, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album ʻelua, ʻo Senor Smoke, kahi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ka hapalua o ka laina o ka hui. Ua hoʻomaka ka poʻe mele e hoʻopaʻa i ka album ma ke keena ʻo Warner Brothers. Ua kau inoa ʻo ia i kahi ʻaelike me ka hui ma hope o ka moʻolelo kūleʻa mua. Akā ma mua koke o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana, ua hoʻopau ʻia ka ʻaelike e ka luna mele hou.
No laila, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo Senor Smoke ma ka inoa ʻo Philadelphia ʻo Metropolis Records, i hana pū me nā mea mele ʻē aʻe (London After Midnight, Mindless Self Indulgence, Gary Newman, IAMX). Mai ia manawa mai, hauʻoli ka hui i kāna pūʻali koa liʻiliʻi akā kūpaʻa o nā mea pā me nā album hou i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
Ma muli o kekahi o nā mele o ka album lua, ʻo ia hoʻi ka manaʻo uhi no ka mele a ka Queen Radio Gaga.
Inā kala mau ka "fans" o ka quartet Pelekane kaulana i ka poʻe ʻAmelika no ka mele, a laila ua huhū nui ka wikiō i hōʻike ʻia ai ʻo Dick Valentine ma ke kiʻi o Freddie Mercury. ʻO ka mea i kū ka mea leo o ka hui ma ka lua kupapaʻu o Mercury i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke wikiō.
Ua ʻike ʻia ke kolu o ka album ʻo Switzerland no ka makemake o ka poʻe mele e pana i kahi wikiō no kēlā me kēia mele mai ka album. Akā i ka hopena, ua kaupalena ʻia lākou i ʻewalu wale nō.
Ua haʻalele ʻo Electric Six i ka hui
Ma hope o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka album, haʻalele ka bassist ʻo Jonh R. Dequindre i ka hui a ua pani ʻia e Smorgasbord!. ʻO ka mea hoʻokahi wale nō i komo i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā album āpau o ka hui Electric Six ʻo Dick Valentine ka mea leo leo. ʻO ka huina, 16 mau mea hoʻokani pila i komo i ka hui.
Ma 2009, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Dick Valentine i kahi album me ka papahana Evil Cowards hou. Ua hoʻomau ʻo ia i ka hana ma ka album studio hou ʻo Electric Six KILL.
Mai ia manawa mai, hoʻomaka ka hui e hoʻokuʻu i nā moʻolelo like ʻole. Ma waho aʻe o nā album helu, ua hoʻopaʻa ka hui i ʻelua mau moʻolelo me nā mana uhi o nā mele kaulana ʻo Mimicry and You're Welcome!.
