Biography

Marc Heal and Phil Barry, otherwise known as industrial terrorists Cubanate, have explored the hybrid style created by mixing industrial music with the high-speed rhythms of techno. The group formed in London in late 1992 with Heal on vocals and Barry playing guitar, along with keyboard player Graham Rayner and percussionist Steve Etheridge. Cubanate began recording soon after, and played their first live show that same year. In early 1993, the group signed to Berlin’s Dynamica label and released the “Bodyburn” single a few months later. It earned good reviews (Single of the Week according to Kerrang!), but Rayner and Etheridge left not long after. Ex-Nitzer Ebb drummer Julian Beeston replaced the two for a while, but Heal and Barry decided to continue the core of the group as a two-piece.

September 1993 brought the duo’s debut album Antimatter, and the Metal EP followed in 1994. Controversy followed Cubanate around the British Isles during a 1994 tour with Carcass, as death threats and near riots caused the London Evening Standard to declare that the band had “provoked an outbreak of demented carnage.” Late in 1994, Cubanate delivered “Oxyacetylene,” the trailer single for second LP Cyberia, which appeared in early 1995. “Oxyacetylene” was a hit of some note, featuring on “Mortal Kombat II” and “Gran Turismo” soundtrack LP’s.

    "Marc here. I should have posted this a while back, but I wanted to let everyone know that I have decided conclusively not to do another Cubanate album. I was a real blast getting back into studio with Phil – and he came up with some brilliant music. But I’m doing something different with my life now and I’ve come to the conclusion to leave it. Thanks for all your support, I really appreciate it. I'll keep posting."

    "The first new Cubanate material since 1998 will be released in January 2011 on the forthcoming Alfa Matrix compilation "Electronic Body Matrix 1". Other artists on the compilation include Nitzer Ebb, Front 242, Funker Vogt and many others. The new Cubanate track is called "We Are Crowd", it's a mid-tempo romper-stomper. More to come." - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cubanate/181903017655
