Ecclesiastical Scaffolding

Long-running Australian sound project, incorporating elements from Industrial, Experimental, and Noise genres, but leaning (especially in later years) towards Dark Ambient. Started in Melbourne in 1986 by Blair Rideout with occasional help from guest artists. Two early releases through the Extreme label established the project as part of the international underground cassette scene; later releases have largely been self-released, apart from a number of compilation tracks and a 7" single on Drone Records in 2003.
