MX-80 Sound | Hard Attack | Album

Hard Attack (1977) by MX-80 Sound is widely regarded by critics as a foundational, though criminally overlooked, document of the proto-punk and art-rock era. Released on Island Records in the UK but initially denied a US release, the album is celebrated for its unique blend of "art metal," "noisy new wave," and "free jazz" sensibilities. The album is anchored by Bruce Anderson’s "slashing, trebly guitar riffing" and "atonal chord structures," which often clash with the dual-drummer rhythm section.
