History
....Huh!? formed in 1992 when the four members met at the then prestigious Carlsberg Music Contest. They found similarity in interest and started writing songs and performing, often around clubs in Lan Kwai Fong, Central, Hong Kong. Very early on, they were invited to perform in a festival in Germany.
They recorded four albums and have played in Japan and Beijing in subsequent years. In those years, ....Huh!? was frequently a headliner band in an event. Their 3rd album is the live album "Let The Dog Bark" with the first versions bundled with a VHS of four songs from their live performance on December 30, 1994 at The Academy Hall, their biggest solo show.
In 1997, Tim Leung left the band. The remaining 3 members recorded their 3rd album "Walk In The Park" with Edmund Leung taking up the vocals. Their third studio album was an artistically achieving one with Edmund experimenting extensively on wall of sound. They also recorded their 4th album as the soundtrack to the 1997 indie movie "In The Dump 垃圾年頭".
The band split up afterwards, Ming Chung is a reputed session musician for many mainstream artists, and is drummer of the hibernating band Gayamyan 假音人. Tim Leung moved to work in China. Edmund Leung continued to work in the alternative music community, and created the group Goodmorninggloria, and worked with the drama/music band Juicy Ning and others. Edmund plays as a solo artist regularly, and is currently drumming for the protest band Mininoise and the reggae band Crazy Lion.
Their first album "What A Drag" and third album "Walk In The Park" has been reissued digitally on IndieMusicBox.
