In 1982, Still Life self-released a two song 10" of repetitive and rhythmic semi-ambient music using both organic and electronic instrumentation.
4) Still Life is a Spanish hardcore band from Burgos.
5) Still Life was a British progressive rock band characterized by expert Hammond organ playing, intricate and original vocal harmonies, and an agile and precise rhythm section. The had one self-titled album that was originally released in 1971 and later re-released in 2003. The record was early organ-dominated progressive rock, its lyrical themes dwelling upon uneasy doubt and sadness, the melodies colored with the gothic classicism prevalent in much of the genre during the period. The album credits kept an aura of mystery about their membership. Martin Cure (Martin Cure And The Peeps), and Graham Amos (Rainbows (band)), Terry Howells and Alan Savage were believed to be involved.
6) Still Life were a rock band from Humberside in the United Kingdom. As well as a popular band in their home town they released several critically acclaimed singles and were one of the first UK bands to embrace the internet as a means of advertising and promoting their music.
still life were formed in 1996 by a group of five musicians from Kingston Upon Hull in the UK: Vocalist Paul Terry, drummer Phil Bean, vocalist and bass player James Paddison and guitarists Andy Clark and Mike Richmond. Richmond is credited as lyricist on all of the band's recorded tracks, music was credited to the entire band.
From lowly beginnings in local pubs and clubs, still life rapidly sailed to the top of the local music scene, eventually performing as support for several major acts including Atomic Kitten, Sash! and Fine Young Cannibals. The band finally split up in 2005, with an invite only performance at The Winter Gardens club in Cleethorpes supported by up and coming Hull-based singer songwriter Emma Rugg.
The band's alternative rock sound developed from an early influence of the britpop bands of the time (particularly The Smiths and Suede) into a more mature, experimental sound as the band became more proficient in studio techniques. The band's final release, At The Wheel is considered by many to be their most proficient, featuring the kind of production wizardy that led them to be favourably compared in both the local and national music press to R.E.M. and Queen!
A common misconception, given the band's influences is that they were named after the track Still Life from Suede's Dog Man Star album. In actual fact, the band name was taken by Richmond from another Suede song, "Breakdown" ("Back where the dogs bark, where still life bleeds the concrete white")
Following the break up of the band, guitarist Mike Richmond joined up and coming country rock band The Raindogs, and has recently rejoined former colleagues Clark, Paddison and Terry, along with drummer Mick Harding in new band Circus Envy.
It should be noted that, as in the band's logo, still life was preferred by the band to be written in lower case.

Still Life Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
times we fall victim to the overwhelming negativity and despair that can seem to engulf the world around us. During these moments, it can be all too easy to ignore the pain and suffering that exists, to simply close our eyes and retreat from the discomfort. These lyrics force us to confront this reality head-on, urging us to rise up and take action as opposed to hiding from the pain under the guise of ignorance or apathy. The words "sometimes we lose our hope we fall to doubt" acknowledge the tendency we have as humans to give in to hopelessness during darker times. However, the following lyrics, "It's time to look up it's time to move on" encourage us to push past these feelings and strive for something more.
The lyrics go on to speak of reaching out and making positive change in the world, stressing the importance of working together to achieve this goal. There is a sense of humility and honesty in the lyrics, as the singer recognizes that they are just one person striving for change, but they are still driven to do something to help others. In this way, the song encourages listeners to find their own way to make a positive impact, even if it seems small in the grand scheme of things.
