About

These was an experimental noise and industrial project active during the early 1980s, documenting their output primarily through cassette releases on the independent DD. Records label. The project's discography consists of four numbered releases spanning 1983-1984, including both studio recordings and live performances that capture the group's raw, unpolished aesthetic characteristic of the underground noise scene of that era. These' approach aligned with the broader post-industrial and power electronics movements emerging from Europe in the early 1980s, emphasizing harsh textures, feedback, and unconventional sound design over traditional song structures. The cassette format served as the primary distribution medium for the project, reflecting the DIY ethos prevalent in underground experimental music communities during this period. While details about specific personnel and production methods remain limited, These' catalog represents an important artifact of early 1980s cassette culture and the experimental noise underground. The project's work on DD. Records places them within a network of similarly adventurous underground labels and artists exploring the boundaries of organized sound during the formative years of industrial and noise music.
