Electrafixion were an alternative rock band formed by former Echo and the Bunnymen members Ian McCulloch and Will Sergeant in 1994. Featuring more of a 'rock' sound than their previous band, they released one album ('Burned') and four singles/ep's before splitting in 1996, due to the reformation of the Bunnymen. A posthumous limited 7" single 'Baseball Bill' was released in 1997. When touring, the band included Julian Phillips (formerly of Marion) on bass and his brother, George Phillips, on drums.
