André Bach, Xavier Serge Martin, Marc Tegefoss and Arjen Schrama Live at first Ultra night at Oktopus, photo by Ronnie Kroes 1980.09 |
The most interesting group among these, were undoubtedly Tox Modell, comprised of four guys line up, two guitars, bass and vocals, no drums, often switching duties among themselves. They were probably the closest things to the industrial "punk" of early SPK singles back than. They managed to create the same psycho-robotic sonic mayhem of the aussie pioneers.
Unfortunately only 3 songs were descent quality studio recorded (hopefully for some to pop up on the web as things always do) and released as a split with fellow Ultra's Plus Instruments, on a flexi disc included in a Vinyl Magazine issue.
Other than that, two gigs were released on tape by Lebel Period (run by the group's guitar player Marc).
