About
Ultra was an underground experimental and industrial music project active during the 1980s and early 1990s. Operating within the DIY cassette and vinyl culture of the era, the project released material primarily through independent labels including Dom, Dom America, and Aquilifer Sodality. Their discography spans from live cassette documentation in 1986 through to collaborative efforts in the early 1990s, reflecting the aesthetic values of the post-industrial underground music scene. The project's output suggests engagement with harsh, experimental sound design characteristic of the period's noise and industrial underground. Ultra's releases, though limited in number, represent participation in the network of independent artists and labels that sustained experimental music outside mainstream commercial channels during this period. The project's work appears aligned with the broader experimental and noise music communities of North America during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
