Walls Of Genius

About

Walls of Genius was an underground experimental and noise music project active during the early 1980s. Operating primarily in the cassette-based DIY music scene, the project released a series of lo-fi experimental works that exemplified the aesthetic of early industrial and noise music. Their discography includes "Almost Groovy!" (1983), "Raw Sewage, Vol. 1" (1984), and "Before ...And After" (1984), all issued on cassette format through independent labels including their self-titled imprint. The project's output was characterized by raw, unpolished sound design and experimental approaches typical of the underground noise scene during this period. Their work appeared across multiple small independent labels, suggesting connections within the broader experimental music community of the era. Like many cassette-era noise projects, Walls of Genius remains relatively obscure but represents an important part of the DIY experimental music infrastructure that emerged during the early 1980s underground.
