Solar Enemy was a British electronic and industrial band.
Formed in 1990 out of the ashes of the seminal 1980s group Portion Control by founding members John Whybrew, Ian Sharp and Dean Piavani and released two albums on Third Mind Records and T.E.Q. Music respectively, with some songs that did some reasonable business in the clubscene at the time. Solar Enemy ceased activity in 1993. John and Dean reformed as Portion Control again in the early 21st century.
Famous quotes containing the words solar and/or enemy:
“Lincoln becomes the American solar myth, the chief butt of American credulity and sentimentality.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“For men tied fast to the absolute, bled of their differences, drained of their dreams by authoritarian leeches until nothing but pulp is left, become a massive, sick Thing whose sheer weight is used ruthlessly by ambitious men. Here is the real enemy of the people: our own selves dehumanized into “the masses.” And where is the David who can slay this giant?”
—Lillian Smith (1897–1966)
