(Not to be confused with a contemporary metal band also called xex....)
recently got given a reissue of this 1980 LP: 'an electronic pop collective from New Jersey, xex combines avant-garde sounds with witty, cogent lyrics about contemporary life and politics' (from the sleeve). Trying to find out a bit more about them - like, whether they really did exist! Or are they too good to be true...?
The CD was re-relased by Tom Smith of To Live & Shave in LA...
The lyrics are incredible:
Soviet nerve gas is subtle/once it hits there's no time for rebuttal/there's no colour there's no smell/but it works very well/soviet nerve gas is subtle
There's something on them here: http://www.appelstein.com/xex/ but generally very little online.
anyone any the wiser?
