About the artist

Negativland is an experimental music and sound collage band that originated in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1979. They "lifted their name" from a Neu! song.

Chris Grigg is a former member. Peter Conheim joined the band in 1997. Negativland has released a number of albums, ranging from pure collage to more musical affairs.
