Seefeel

Originally halfway between the often-connected worlds of British indie rock and experimental techno, Seefeel continued the dizzying guitar-effects exploration of My Bloody Valentine while setting the whole in a framework of electronic beats and loops, and have gone on to forge a more caustic sound bathed in static. Begun as a standard rock band in early 1992, the quartet soon grew bored within the constraints of normal musical forms and started working with loops and programs rather than lyrics and choruses. After a handful of EPs, the albums Quique (1993), Succour (1995), and CH-VOX (1996), and the development of numerous splinter projects, Seefeel went on extended hiatus. They returned in the 2010s with fourth LP Seefeel (2011) and archival releases including Rupt and Flex (1994-96) (2021).
