About
Christ! was an experimental and noise-oriented project active during the late 1980s and early 1990s, primarily associated with the UK underground tape and mail-art scenes. The project released material exclusively through Music & Elsewhere, an independent cassette label dedicated to avant-garde and experimental work. Christ!'s output, characterized by absurdist and provocative aesthetics, consisted of four releases between 1989 and 1993: Please Don't Touch My Yoghurt, Landscape Gardening With Ian & Myra, Ian Curtis In A Spacesuit, and Mmm…Liquorice. The titles alone suggest an approach blending dark humor with experimental sound practices typical of the era's cassette underground. Operating within the broader context of industrial and noise music, Christ! represented the DIY ethos of tape-based distribution networks that served as vital alternatives to mainstream music industries. Though relatively obscure, the project exemplified the creative intersection of conceptual art, sound experimentation, and cultural subversion that characterized underground music scenes of the period.
