Description
MX-80 Sound emerged from Indianas primordial musical sludge in the mid-70s, releasing the iconic Big Hits 7 EP in July 1976. Hip critics were blown away, describing them as Velvet Underground meets Ornette Coleman and Sun Ra eats the Ventures.
This monster package of 1976 material comprises 18 songs, including the entire original 7-song EP, 2 rarities and 9 previously unreleased tracks, all meticulously mastered from the original analog tapes. Giant 20-page booklet with founding story by vocalist Rich Stim. Lyrics, photos, original surreal art, alt-cover slick, radar-dish sticker. 600 copies.
If ever a band realized the potential of pre-punk underground noise rock, MX-80 is it. Trouser Press
Basically one of the best presented records that Ive ever seen. Destined to be a cult single. Mark Perry, Sniffin Glue
MX-80 Sound were one of those bands ahead of their time. I suspect they were a main influence on Sonic Youth, the Swans and Live Skull among others. Julian Cope
