About
Ix-Ex-Splue is an obscure experimental and industrial music project active during the late 1980s. The project emerged from the underground noise and experimental music scenes with a discography spanning three releases between 1987 and 1989. Their debut, Revel, was self-released on cassette in 1987, establishing their presence in the DIY cassette underground. This was followed by The 36 Steps To Innocence in 1988, released on the Vision label, and their only vinyl release, Treasonasylia, in 1989. The sparse documentation surrounding the project suggests they operated within the margins of the industrial and experimental music underground, utilizing cassette culture as a primary distribution method. Like many acts from this era, Ix-Ex-Splue's limited discography and minimal public information reflect the underground, often anonymous nature of experimental noise music during the 1980s. The project's work remains largely obscure, with their releases representing artifacts of the broader experimental and industrial music landscape of the late 1980s.
