About
Rattus Rexx was an experimental and industrial music project active during the mid-to-late 1980s, primarily releasing material through the independent Weed Music label. The project's discography, spanning from 1986 to 1989, demonstrates a commitment to the underground experimental music scene with releases including Hydrocyanid and Hydrocyanic (both 1986), Echoes of the West (1987), and HYSTERICS (1989). The group's work exemplifies the aesthetic of 1980s tape-based experimental and noise music, utilizing the cassette format as their primary medium of distribution—a choice typical of underground and DIY industrial music circles of the era. With limited information available in mainstream music documentation, Rattus Rexx remains a relatively obscure but notable contributor to the broader experimental and industrial underground scene. The repetition and variation in their early releases suggest an evolving artistic approach during their active period.
