Front Line Assembly was the best known of the various
electronic music projects undertaken by the prolific Vancouver-based duo of
Bill Leeb (vocals, synthesizers) and Rhys Fulber (synthesizers, samplers).
After working in the mid-'80s under the pseudonym Wilhelm Schroeder with Skinny
Puppy, Leeb formed the industrial/techno-based Front Line Assembly in 1986 with
Fulber (who initially joined on as a studio assistant) and synth player Michael
Balch. After Balch departed Front Line Assembly in 1990, Fulber stepped in as a
full partner; the streamlined duo soon released the electro-styled album
Caustic Grip, from which the we find the 12” single Provision.
