About
Locust is an experimental noise and industrial music project that emerged in the early 1990s underground music scene. The project is characterized by harsh, abrasive soundscapes and the exploration of unconventional sonic textures typical of the industrial and noise music aesthetics of that era. Their discography from the mid-1990s demonstrates a commitment to experimental composition and challenging listening experiences. With releases including Natural Composite and Weathered Well in 1994, followed by Truth Is Born Of Arguments in 1995, Locust established themselves within the broader experimental and industrial underground music community. The project's output reflects the aesthetic priorities of early 1990s noise and dark ambient scenes, where artists prioritized sonic innovation and conceptual depth over mainstream accessibility. Locust's work contributed to the diverse landscape of underground experimental music during a period of significant creative activity in noise and industrial music communities.
