Xorcist

Xorcist is the name of an American musical group whose output has ranged from electro-industrial and ambient.

Background

Xorcist started as a one-man act, founded by Bat (aka Peter Stone) who began experimenting in music in 1985. In 1990, he formed Xorcist in an attempt to set new musical standards in the electronic music scene, crossing over industrial music with sonic soundscapes. He was eventually joined by Evoltwin, who also provided cover art for several releases.

As of recently, all music released by Xorcist is available for download on the official website. Stone continues to DJ under the name DJ Bat, and hosts his own website. Stone has also done work on the MTV production "Aeon Flux", as well as the soundtracks for the games "The Iron Helix", "Bad Mojo", and "Space Bunnies Must Die".
