Pere Ubu

Pere Ubu is an American band formed in Cleveland in 1975 that blends post-punk, art-punk, and avant-garde rock. Their sound pairs angular guitar and bass with synthesizers, dissonant saxophone and other studio effects, anchored by David Thomas's distinctive, theatrical vocals and off-kilter song structures. The group is associated with early post-punk and experimental rock approaches that often incorporate industrial textures and unconventional arrangements.
