"Electro Hippies were a thrashcore band formed in St Helens U.K. in 1985. Though they were very underground throughout their short career, they still influenced many future hardcore, crust, and even grindcore groups. They strongly embraced the D.I.Y. ethic, with a particularly hardline stance on animal rights and vegetarianism. Electro Hippies included Jeff Walker on vocals, when he joined Carcass full time, the rest of the band then shared singing duties. Eventually they split in 1989, playing one last gig and releasing that show as their final album."
