- 3D House of Beef
3d House Of Beef is a band originally from
Seattle ,Washington . They released 2 cassette EPs ("Crowning on a Ferris Wheel" and "Lazgrodin/Zosaval"), a remix EP ("Similar Attack Pattern"), 2 full length CD albums (self-titled and "Low Cycle"), as well as appearing on several international music compilations. They were one of the first US based bands to incorporate sonic elements of industrial music, heavy metal, and experimentalnoise along with the ideology and lyrical content of punk andpost rock into live performances and recorded output. In 1997 the band was labeled by now defunctSeattle music magazineThe Rocket (newspaper) as being "the heaviest band in Seattle, ever".The bands early recording output was immediately championed by the UK press as being a revolutionary new direction for
Pacific Northwest music away from the frenzy ofgrunge music that had overtaken the region. Hailed with a four 'K' rating from English magazine "Kerrang! " and stellar reviews fromAC/DC biographerMalcolm Dome , the band was rapidly catapulted to the top of the underground music scene overseas.Lineup information
