Noiseworks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Noiseworks was an Australian rock band that formed in Sydney in 1985. The lineup of Noiseworks was Jon Stevens (lead vocals), Stuart Fraser (guitar), Steve Balbi (bass), Justin Stanley (keyboards) and Kevin Nicol (drums).
Considered to be one of Australia's more successful rock bands of the late 1980s, their self-titled debut in 1987 had a series of successful singles, such as "No Lies," "Take Me Back," and "Welcome to the World." The band's second album, 1989's Touch, proved to be less successful commercially. Noiseworks disbanded in 1992, shortly after the release of the group's third album, Love vs Money (1991).
Stevens has forged a successful solo career since Noiseworks with the albums "Are U Satisfied" , "Circle" & "Ain't No Life For The Fain't Hearted". He went on to become the lead singer of INXS, but left after when he became frustrated with the band's lack of progress in generating new material.
