Biography
There are two artists with this name
1. Dave Phillips co-founded hardcore Swiss extremists Fear of God in 1987. They performed throughout Switzerland, releasing a handful of recordings before their 1988 dissolution. Fear of God has since attained cult status - their fan base has increased, and posthumous releases abound.
With Roger Drein and ex-Fear of God guitarist Reto "Tschösi" Kühne, Phillips formed the group PK in 1991. PK created privately-staged ritualistic performances, usually of an acoustic nature, featuring all-improvised sounds which adhered to pre-determined conceptual frames. The final week of 1992 saw PK locked in a studio, living out of tin cans and recording what was to have been a triple album. With the group's demise in 1993, however, plans for an eventual release were abandoned.
Phillips has been a member of Schimpfluch-Gruppe since 1991. (Om and Dave first met at the 1997 "Welcome to the Naked Gym" event at Le Garage in Paris. To Live and Shave in L.A. and Schimpfluch shared a bill with Evil Moisture and Smell and Quim.)
2. Dave Phillips was a member of The Blue Cats.
