Dutch anarcho punks the Ex have been making an exhilarating, politically charged racket since 1979. Over the years, the band's sound--at its core a taut No Wave-inspired style of post-punk--has come to incorporate Eastern European folk music, funk, free jazz, Ethiopian music, and other disparate styles. The Ex have maintained a fierce leftist stance, and have fully integrated their political beliefs into their art and lifestyle. Heroes of the underground, and something of a European answer to Fugazi, the band have collaborated with, among others, Sonic Youth and Tortoise, and have made two famed albums with the late cellist Tom Cora.
The Ex has also released music as a member of Ex Orkest.
