The Electric Boys are a funk metal band founded in Sweden in 1988, which enjoyed a cult status in Europe at the end of the decade.
They signed for Polygram and scored a local Swedish hit with the single “”All Lips and Hips”” in 1988. This early version of what would become perhaps the band best-known hit also appeared that same year in America on the soundtrack to the movie Feds.
In 1989, the band debut album Funk-O-Metal Carpet Ride, including a revamped version of “”All Lips and Hips”” was a success in Europe, and they picked up a strong following in Britain, where, as well as headlining small clubs, they supported Thunder. When headlining Newcastle upon Tyne, Riverside club, the band were joined on stage by the lead singer of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthony Kiedis who were performing in the same venue at around the same time. The following year, the album was released in America, where they also became moderately successful, thanks to the singles “”All Lips and Hips”” and “”Psychedelic Eyes.”
