about

Monte Cazazza is an American artist and composer best known for his seminal role in helping shape industrial music through recordings with the London-based Industrial Records in the mid-1970s. Based primarily in San Francisco during his early career, He is credited with coining the phrase "Industrial Music for Industrial People". This was later used to encapsulate the record label and the artists representing it. Later, the noise collages and experimental sound manipulation coming out of Industrial records came to be known as industrial music. Cazazza had built up an underground reputation as a particularly volatile performer with a potentially dangerous and antisocial aesthetic. Re/Search Magazine's Industrial Culture Handbook described his work as "insanity-outbreaks thinly disguised as art events".

Meri St. Mary is a musician, writer, artist, radio personality and a punk poet chanteuse who, in 1984, started her seminal avant-garde punk Housecoat Project. She has released two LP's on Subterranean Records, WIDE EYE DOO DAT (SUB61) and her current project girlFIEND (SUB66). She has also produced and released a solo acoustic CD, I'M BACK. Since the early 80's, she has performed live, doing music & spoken word across the USA. She's an award winning DJ at KVMR radio and is the hostess of The Underground Sound and Hallelujah Hollaback.
