About
Drowning Roses were an industrial and experimental music project active during the mid-to-late 1980s. Operating within the underground cassette culture and independent record scenes of that era, the group produced raw, sonically challenging work that aligned with broader trends in noise, industrial, and dark ambient music of the period. Their discography spans from the early cassette release "same" on Suud Tapes in 1986 through two subsequent full-length albums, "Things Are Not The Same" (1988) and "Youth Of Metropolis" (1989). The progression of their releases suggests an evolving approach to experimental composition and production. While detailed documentation of the group's specific membership and artistic evolution remains limited in mainstream music history, their output reflects the DIY ethos and sonic experimentation characteristic of 1980s underground music scenes. The titles of their releases suggest thematic interests in social commentary and existential subject matter, common preoccupations within experimental and industrial music communities of that decade.
