Biography

Bloomington IN, United States

MX-80 Sound were a post-punk band originally from Bloomington, Indiana (involved in the same scene that spawned the Gizmos).

Their sound was centered around Bruce Anderson’s slashing, trebly guitar riffing and Rich Stim’s deadpan, often indecipherable, mumble. As a five-piece (with two drummers), they twice released a seven-song 7-inch EP (subtitled Hard Pop from the Hoosiers) on local labels, impressing Island Records enough to sign them. But the following album, Hard Attack, was never released in the United States and attracted little attention aside from some critical raves.
