Australian dance band formed in 1994.
Sonic Animation were an Australian band that made electronic music from many genres. Rupert Keiller and Adrian Cartwright were with the group through the entirety of its existence, but they also performed with others including Steve Berschtick, who was with the group when it formed, and Erica Mclean who sung the female vocals on the new tracks on their greatest hits album Eleven.
The group split up in 2006. Their last headline tour was the aptly named Bugger off tour, and their final performance ever was at the Perth Big Day Out on the 5th of Feburary 2006.
From Wikipedia:Sonic Animation (or sonicanimation) were an Australian dance/techno musical group. They came to popular attention in 1999 with the release of their track "Theophilus Thistler". Other noted releases since then include "I'm a DJ", "Super Showbiz Star", "This is not a Love Poem" and "Get Up".
Their live acts are noted for the two "furry suits" (known as Robert Roley and Theophilus Thistler) at each gig. These suits are worn by two fans selected by the band via their web site and Chris Wheatley's internet mailing list.
Sonic Animation announced their break-up in mid 2005 with the release of their greatest hits / rarities album Eleven, which was followed by the hugely successful Bugger Off tour. They made their last festival appearance at the Big Day Out in 2006 (Australian shows only).
